He is up one! Here's the story...
Charles is weeding the planting bed up near the side of the house. He had Kiwi tied off on a double-long leash to keep him company. She is laying on the bottom step, sunning herself and watching Daddy. Unbeknownst to either of them, a bear cub is making it's way from the back yard/woods to the front of our yard. What we don't know is just how close the bear crossed where Charles and Kiwi were because their backs were to the bear's path. But finally Charles noticed the bear cub walking away from him down the yard, paralleling the driveway. It stopped at the tree line and was just sniffing around. Kiwi, the mighty hunter, finally notices the cub and barks. The bear looks at them, and takes off loping the rest of the way down the drive and runs out into the dirt road and up towards Forrest's house. Charles said that with the IPod on, he never noticed that a bear was passing behind him! Pretty funny!
UPDATE to the UPDATE!!
As I was sitting here blogging, Charles whispers from the yard, "Get your camera. He's back!" I did, and I got some great photos of the little dude! He was just walking around in the front part of our yard for about 5 minutes!!!
So now the count is:

(Oh, and in case you are wondering...I spent the entire 5 minutes out on the front porch.)
