    lkj.jpgI'm thinking of posting these warnings all over my tent. This should guarantee a peaceful quiet night in the woods. I also have these signs printed for mice, bobcats, owls, skunks, walrus, deer, ticks, and ducks.

    So much for my humor attempt. I'll just crawl back under my introvert rock. It's all good!

    I'm reminded of the bad joke. Why don't they put the deer crossing sign at a less busy section of the road?

    Bears are afraid of cameras. Just sleep with yours in hand.

    I got this advice on the trail last year- "if you want to avoid bears in your tent, simply rub some peanut butter on your neighbors tent. You might need earplugs, what with all the chewing' and a screaming'"

    Great, now I have to buy a "no peanut butter" sign as well.

    The bears say there is no room for that kind of negativity on the trail! They are happy to welcome you and perhaps share their peanut butter with you as well. Don't believe them when they try and tell you it works great for toughening your feet - They are simply trying to cover the hiker funk!

    Ohhhh - Don't forget raccoons! They are some of the worst offenders for taking stuff.
