Jesse Bear

Hi Daniel, 

 I went to the library today in Kennebunk! I sat on the shoulders of this statue and listened to the kids read!

I went to Agway Garden Store with Grandma Joan and sat amongst the very few daffodils that are in bloom. Spring is not really started here quite yet!



Too busy at the Subaru Garage and the gym to do much today. Tomorrow! I can’t wait to get back and see you Daniel!

Your friendly Bear, Jesse

The Bears Are Coming Home!

On my way home!



Caramel Made it to NYC

Caramel made it to NYC!!!
 Jordyn's bear Caramel is handling the transition from sunny California to cool, crisp New York very well. Spring has sprung here and Caramel is enjoying Central Park and some of our wonderful museums.





Shane

My name is Ali Johnston and I am Ryan's aunt! We have had the honor of hosting Ryan's bear(Shane) for the last few months. We live in Shrewsbury, Ma and he is enjoying his time here! Over the last few months Shane has had many adventures with Ryan's cousins Abi and Noah. Two of his favorites were bowling and skiing.

We went bowling with our cousins Makayla and Cameron! Shane loved meeting new people and got a chance to snuggle! We also let Shane help keep score!



Shane also had a chance to see one of Noah's basketball games and see him receive his trophy! 



Noah and Abi also took Shane to Ski Ward, which is one mile from our house in Shrewsbury. We spend a lot of time there in the colder weather! Shane got a chance to meet Abi's best friend Emily and even took turns riding down the mountain with all of them! 




We have had fun with Shane and hope you enjoy some of the pictures we have taken!


Love,
Aunt Ali


Professor William Bearington and Fabio at Bingo

It was Monday night at the Club house and we had the opportunity to call out some numbers at Bingo. It was lots of fun and the people seemed to enjoy seeing two bears at their Club house especially when they heard of our travels.


Professor William Bearington and Fabio With Eagles

Today we witnessed a pair of nesting Eagles in Forest Lakes. The Complex is getting ready to replace a tile roof on a villa but have to wait until the Baby Eagles are ready to fly. They are protected so the complex cannot disturb them. Once they leave the nest, the Association has petition the Wildlife to relocate their nest away from any of the homes. You see Eagles, catch fish and they tend to drop fish near the homes creating a terrible mess and odor. It will cost the Association some $4500. to relocate and protect the Eagles.

Also we got to feed the ducks that visit Kevin and Katrina's grandparents condo. When we stayed there we fed them three times a day. They laid 12 eggs in the bushes outside our bedroom window. My grandparents took pictures of the eggs, as well as the baby ducks when they hatched as we had returned home.



Professor William Bearington and Fabio

Naples, Florida

After a full day at the beach we are going to share our bedroom with our cousin, Teddy who lives in Florida, full time. We are excited because tomorrow we get to go to the airport and meet Kevin and Katrina as they are spending a week with us. SOoooooooooooooooooo excited!! Hope we can sleep.



Here we are relaxing by one of the three pools in Forest Lakes Condominium where there are 352 units located on 20 acres abutting an 18 hole golf course.

The grounds are beautiful here. It is conveniently located within 2 miles from the beach and very close to shopping malls.

 After sitting by the pool, we decided to go for a swim. The temperature is 85 degrees and this pool is heated to 90 degrees.
