Place Sticker on Forehead. Huh.

Hi, um, it's Klu.

I couldn't think of nothin' to write my blog about today, but I didn't want to let my fans down, so I just did something silly. I put a sticker on Bruno's head that says, 'Place Sticker on Forehead. Smile.' Then we took a picture of us in Janna's birdhouse. Here's the picture of us. Did it make you smile?


Love,
Klu

PS. I'll try to write a more 'citing post tomorrow, but sometimes I get Blogging Bear Block, and can't think of nothin'. But Big Mummy says it's important that I write a blog every day, even if I'm stuck. Can't wait for insp'ration, she says, or I'll never write a blog at all.

Kind of A Ordinary Day

Hi, it's me, Klu the Bear.

Today was kind of a Ordinary Day. I woke up when Auntie E was blowin' her nose really loud. (She makes a lot of noise when she blows her nose. Sometimes she sounds like one of them Canada geese.) Then I ate some Cheerios. I like Cheerios a lot. I like them cuz they fit just right in my paws. And if I'm bored, I can look through the hole in the center. (I eat them dry, cuz that's how my Big Mummy trained me to eat them.) Then I did some other bear-stuff. You know, normal things that bears do every day, like looking for honey to eat. Honey 'minded me of Bubble Bees, so I asked Big Mummy if I could play Bubble Bees, but she needed her 'puter. Then me and the other kids played for a while. We played in Janna Ganna's birdhouse. Blu made us laugh cuz he got his head stuck trying to go in the front door. (His head is bigger than mine, 'member? That's how you can tell us apart.) And we practiced basketball. I think Bianca is gonna be the best player on our team, cuz lambs are frisky and all. Then I can't 'member what we did next, but now it's time for me to write my blog. All 'bout my ordinary day.

I'll have a more 'citing day tomorrow, and I'll tell you all 'bout it.

Love,
Klu

The Elk Bugling and Campin' in the Middle of the Night

Hi everyone, it's me, Klu.

Um, here's a picture of me and Roma and Auntie E all being 'nonymous. Big Mummy took this photo of us on the second day of our camping trip. We went on the camping trip cuz it was Big Mummy's birthday, and what she wanted to do for her birthday treat was go listen to the elk bugling. So we drove to a campground, and got there in the middle of the night. The moon was the prettiest ever, and we had lots of firewood, so we made a big fire. It's okay to make a fire at that campground, cuz they had those metal places to make a fire. And Smokey Bear said the fire danger was low. (I like Smokey Bear's hat -- maybe I could be a Fireman Bear or a Ranger Bear some day. 'Cept I want to be a Captain Bear, like Uncle Captain J.) Anyway, we made a fire and ate dinner, and then we slept in the back of Auntie E's truck. I like sleepin' in the truck. It's super-cozy, cuz two grownups and a bear and a muppet take up a lot of room. Then, we got up REALLY early and drove into the national park and went to a meadow where the elk bugle.

I gotta tell you all about the elk bugling. The oldest boy elks want to catch lots of wives, so they make a 'mazing sound. They open their mouths in a funny way, and then they make a moo that sounds like singing. It was so beautiful it made all the fur stand up on my arms. And the sound went bouncin' round and round in the valley. It was like a concert. When it got light, we watched the elks with the binoculars. The boy elks would bugle at each other to say who was the strongest, and who should have the most wives. Sometimes they crash their antlers together if they can't agree on who's the strongest, but we didn't get to see that. Maybe next year, cuz I want to go back. It was the most 'mazing-est thing I ever heard.

I gotta go to bed now, cuz it's WAY past my bedtime. It's 11:00. I'm supposed to go to bed at 9:00, but I was all wakey-wakey, cuz I wanted to write a blog. I like bein' a Blogging Bear.

Tomorrow I'm gonna write a post about some of the other kids, cuz I wrote lots of post about me and my bacations.

Love,
Klu

I Gotta 'Pologize

Hi, um, it’s me, Klu the Bear, and I’m real sorry, cuz I didn’t do no bloggin’ for lots of days. I think I’m still gettin’ re’justed from my bacation of a lifetime. Sometimes it takes a long time to get re’justed after a bacation. It’s hard to settle down and be a Normal Bear after being a Sailor Bear. And then, just when I was gettin’ ‘justed, Big Mummy and Auntie E took me and Roma on another bacation. It was just an overnight bacation, and we went to Rocky Mountain National Park to hear the elk bugling. But I’ll tell you all ‘bout that in another post. Right now, I gotta tell you about the last thing we did on my bacation of a lifetime.

Uncle Captain J had to do an extra job one day, ‘sides his normal job driving the David B. He had to drive the ferry that goes back and forth to Lummi Island. So me and Big Mummy borrowed Auntie Ch’s bike, and we rode around Lummi Island. Here’s a picture of me in Big Mummy’s backpack. I like feeling the wind blowing through my fur.

Okay, that's all I'm gonna write about my bacation on the David B. Now that I'm back home in Colorado, I'm gonna write about other stuff. I'm gonna write about the elk bugling (that's when they make a special noise, but I'll tell you more about it tomorrow), and about the things we play in Janna's birdhouse, and about lots of other stuff.

Love,
Klu

I Wish I Could Always Be A Sailor Bear


Hi, it's me, Klu.

I just have two more posts to do about my bacation of a lifetime. Here's one.

After we got off the David B, we stayed in Bellingham for a while. One day Big Mummy and Auntie E and I went to a bookstore and coffee shop in a place called Fairhaven. I looked out the window and pretended that I was still a Sailor Bear. Here's a picture of me looking out the window and Big Mummy being 'nonymous.

Then I read a book about a pirate. I'm glad we didn't 'counter any pirates when we were out on the David B. I think pirates might be a little scary. Here's a picture of me reading the pirate book.

Tomorrow I'll write my last post about my bacation of a lifetime. I feel sad that I'm not a Sailor Bear anymore. But once a Sailor Bear, always a Sailor Bear.

Love,
Klu

A Tribute From Me and Roma

Hi, it's me, Klu, and Roma. We're feeling real sad about those kids that died because those bad men came to their schools. We don't understand why people do bad things to other people. (Bears and muppets do bad things to each other too, but you don't hear about it so much cuz they don't have newspapers and radios and stuff like people do). Big Mummy said we should do a tribute to those kids that died. A tribute is when you do something nice about someone who died. So we just want to say that we're real sad and this is our tribute. Sometimes it's good to be a Blogging Bear, cuz then you can write important things on your blog, like a tribute to some kids who died. That's more important than telling about my bacation or how we like to go rock-climbing.


Here's a picture of me and Roma saying a prayer. We said a prayer for all those kids' brothers and sisters. I bet they miss them something fierce. I'd miss Janna or Bruno or Roma or Blu or Bianca something fierce if something happened to one of them. We cried, too, when we said a prayer, even though we don't know those kids' brothers and sisters. But we feel real sad about it.

Love,
Klu and Roma

I'm Almost Done Tellin' You 'Bout My Bacation


Hi, it's me, Klu.

It's kind of a peaceful day today. My Auntie E is off today, and she's havin' a nap on the couch right now. I like naps on couches. My Big Mummy is just doin' quiet stuff too, like writing her novel. So I decided I'd better write my blog (Get A Klu) while she didn't want to use the computer. Then I'm gonna take a nap too. Bears are good at naps, cuz we know how to hibernate.

The first picture is a picture of me by some weird lady made out of wood. She looked kind of scary but kind of funny too. You can see the David B in the background.

After we saw the weird lady, me and my Big Mummy and Auntie E walked back down to the dock. Here's a picture of me on the dock.

That's all for today.
Love,
Klu the Almost-Napping Bear
