Bearly Hunt

Word is it has spread all the way from New Zealand to Albuquerque.

Yep, we've got it!

The New York Times puts it this way:

It’s like a scavenger hunt suited for social distancing: People put teddy bears and other stuffed animals in windows, on porches, in trees and on parked cars. Then, children go for walks or drives with their families and try to spot as many as they can.

Not wanting to be left out of the latest trend - we've joined!

Here are just a few of the creatures that are adorning our windows.










They may not be "bears in the air" as C.W. McCall called cops in choppers on the record and in the movie Convoy...but they they are bears.

BTW - By The Way - I interviewed C.W. McCall - in the gallery of the New Mexico State Senate.  He was making the rounds of the promoting the record and the movie.   

C.W. McCall was a stage name.  The author and recording artist of the song was an ad agency guy by the name of Bill Fries.

Fries went on to be elected Mayor of Ouray, Colorado a number of times.
