The bear arrived quickly, I had a call this morning already. The price he offered is nominal, but at the same time, I'm not going to try to sell it anywhere else so just having it out of the house is nice. I didn't want to be the one to cut apart the thing, and even then, I'd still be trying to sell bear parts. It's just difficult with the online auction world coming out of the state of California where they have stricter rules than anyplace else.

Have some unexpected running around to do today. My glasses are ready, that's good. Preparing for the trip involves quite a mix of stuff. Before I leave I need to wash the truck, get a couple of bottles of oil, put some extra water in, get out the cooler, etc.
