Howdy!

Zzzzzzz...

...huh? Who's there?

Oh, howdy! I'm just taking a little nap outside. I am here down south in Texas for the holidays. I also brought my cowboy clothes and hat - it's the perfect outfit to wear in Texas!

The weather is terrific today! I think I'll go exploring around outside for a bit.

This is big sky country!

They say everything's bigger in Texas, and I even feel bigger here (though I am still a little bear).

Let's check out some of the things growing out here in the backyard.

This is a fig tree, but I don't see any figs yet. We'll check back again soon. In the meantime, it's great for climbing!

And here is a grapefruit tree that has been growing so well!

I had a grapefruit the other day and it was very delicious, especially with a little sugar sprinkled on top.

And this is... hmm... this looks like a fun garden project. The soil has been cleared of weeds and old plants and is ready for new seeds. What should I plant in this garden?

I really like being a cowboy/farmer bear, y'all!

Fall Farm Fun

I think it's time for some fall festivities!  Today I went to a farm.  I started off climbing some bales of hay.  That was fun but I soon realized that I am a magnet for hay.

Then I saw a large tractor at the farm and climbed aboard.

So this is what it's like to be a farmer bear.

No trip to a farm would be complete without an adventure in a corn maze.  Here I am about to enter the cornundrum.  Beary clever, whoever thought of this.

I went inside and tried to find my way out.

Then I came to a fork in the road.

I also saw some aliens in this corn maze.  I guess it's true what they say about aliens landing in cornfields.  These aliens were beary friendly.

But I was still stuck in this corn maze!

Would I ever find my way out?

Phew!  I finally found the exit of that corn maze.  Next, it was time to visit some animals.  Here was a dairy cow.

Next, I fed some goats.

 Then I visited some beary hard-working bees.

Right next to them was a stand full of honey!

I also picked a pumpkin on our way out.  Maybe I will enter Jerry and Ben's pumpkin carving contest.  Fall is fun and also my favorite season - be sure to do some fun fall things!
