Bear Creek app 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 o;il on wood panel


Bear Creek has a tendency to flood in the spring. Problem - you had to ford it to get to town, so you had to drive miles out of the way during the flood, and even then you had to cross a one-lane bridge that was rickety, especially when the creek below was swollen. I always thought it was un-Twentieth Century- like to have to go through all this. Well, they built two new bridges and I knew the twenty-first century had, at long last, arrived.
