My mom couldn't figure out why it smelled like 100 wet dogs at our house last week... but the mystery was explained when she disovered that a bear had been asleep in the tree in front of our house all day. It would have been an awesome photo op since the tree is only about ten feet away from our deck, but unfortunately I missed the whole thing because I was in Hungary.
