179. Bear/Tree

DAY ONE-HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-NINE

I will just go ahead and assume that Jonathan and I will be two of the only people who think this is funny. I challenge you! I asked Jonathan, yet again, to save the day and suggest something for the song of the day.

LORD OF THE DANCE!

Here is his description of where this song came from. This is a true story that happened to him on a trip with several of his friends. It became a memory that we relived today in a dramatization:

There I am, driving through Yellowstone at night. The car approaches a looming silhouette that looks uncannily like a full-grown grizzly bear standing up on its hind legs. Just as I am taking in this shocking discovery, a flashing hazard light on the side of the road flashes and illuminates the figure that now appears to be nothing but a spruce tree. Feeling comforted by the new revelation, I continue in the car toward the figure and the light turns off. Is that a bear? The car gets closer. Tree. Closer. Bear. Closer. Bear! Tree? Bear? Tree! Bear!

Okay… go!
