mama bear gone loco

Me: What's that noise? It sounds like something got into the garage.

Dave - riveted by The Office: It's nothing.

(loud banging, too loud for a mouse or a cat or a raccoon....)

Dave - standing by the front window: It's a bear trying to get to the garbage in the garage.

I look out the window to see, literally, the Mother Bear hauling it's gigantic body down our driveway. It had been slamming its body against our garage door, trying to break it down. I'm just happy I wasn't down there doing laundry at the time.
