Bad Dream

 Last night I woke up at the end of a bad dream.
 In the dream Josh and I lived in a wooded area off a main road.  There were three houses- my parents lived on the left, we lived in the middle & we had neighbors on the right.  We were driving (with our kids in the car) about to turn into our driveway, when these huge grizzly bears approached the car.  My dad was in the road, up ahead, watching as the grizzlies poked & scratched our car.
Then the dream skipped to another day, and the grizzlies were at it again, attacking our car. This time, they tipped our car over on its side.  The boys were all three asleep & buckled in.  Again, my dad was watching, so I knew that since he was there, we'd be okay. (Even though I was terrified outside my mind.)
Then the dream skipped ahead again. This time I was taking Wyatt to the grocery store by myself. I was walking with Josh's friend Jana (a fellow Yukon School District teacher) pushing Wyatt in an umbrella stroller.  I was telling Jana about the attacks and she offered me  her bear mace. On the way to her apartment, we saw a very large man being chased by a bear.  We were scared the bear would change his mind and try to chase us because I had a baby who was obviously defenseless. I had to yank Wyatt out of his stroller and we booked it to Jana's place.  Unfortunately we couldn't find the bear mace.
And the dream ended.

I think I have Alaska on my mind!!!

Oh no! Lol, I never actually saw a bear up there. Just lots of moose. However, Josh might have a higher chance of finding a bear since he'll be living in a little more hilly area so bear mace might be a good plan!
