My goal going up Waterton Canyon for years was to snap bear photos. I wanted to have enough bear photos to fill a calendar.

As I began creating monthly greeting cards, I thought it would be really cool to have a bear card for each month.

But bear spotting in Waterton hasn't always been highly productive for me. And now, with Lizard's diagnosis and the speed of Parkinson's progression, I don't get up Waterton very often anymore.

I do have quite a few quality crochet bear photos... And I've even had a fairly successful greeting card career with the crocheted bears. I sometimes sell up to ten cards a month! Ha ha!

Yet still, there's just something magical about real life bears.

Leave it to our neighborhood bears to help me fill my greeting card quota!!!
