Looks awesome! I'm excited to see this bear again. I know that there is some difficulty in finding this bear a ride home, but I'm not sure what I can do on my part. I'll call you Dean today to talk about this issue.

Wow, this is further along in the process than I had thought, thank you so much, I'm very impressed with all the unselfishness in making this happen for me.
