Not a bear. They're goats. Carrying out a great idea. Part II 2016-07-17 - Jr. Loy Road, South Adair County, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com (c). Enlarging a larger frame at home, we found that it was a delightful heard of goats, not bears, not scavengers. Linda caught on quickest. "They're eating the grass the mower threw on the road." Then I remembered a delight suggestion, that the City, County, and State Road Departments put away their poisons, retire their mowers, and contract with goatherders to keep the right of ways clean. Don't expect it to ever happen. It's part of the inanity of goverments that they spend money to uglify and then spend money to advertise what they no longer have. Paired photo.

When Linda slowed the Honda to a crawl, I wondered what was up ahead. There appeared to be a bear or a big black dog in the road or from a distance, may scavengers. Then we figured out what they were doing, and loved it. SeePaired photo. Not a bear - it's even better. A great idea at work right now.
