Mommy Look! Big Teddy Bear!

No honey…that’s a big scary bear. He looks cute, but you don’t want to touch him.
In case you missed it: bear sitings are on the rise in our area and the latest was in Lawrence near Brystol-Myers Squibb.
Just the other day, I got nervous when 2 baby deer appeared in my cul-de-sac while I was outside with my daughter (we mostly just see bunnies and squirrels) so I don’t want to think about bears hanging out in our scarce grouping of trees.
Maybe in addition to the potty training books, I can find ones that talk about animal safety and the difference between real bears and teddy bears.

…You’ll want to come to Princeton High School this Saturday for some old fashioned baseball from the Historical Society of Princeton.
Two 19th-century baseball teams-the Flemington Neshanock and the Elizabeth Resolutes-will come back to life on the PHS junior varsity field. You’ll feel like Kevin Costner watching his baseball heroes play right in his backyard. The authentic game will feature period uniforms from 1864 and 1873 and a brief baseball lesson and recreation of “Casey at the Bat” by Brad “Brooklyn” Shaw. And what is a baseball game without hot dogs? Princeton Soup and Sandwich Co. will supply the lunch and Joe’s ice cream truck will bring dessert.
Cost: Free for HSP members; $2/person or $6/family (4+ people) for non-members.
Location: Princeton High School junior varsity baseball field, next to 25 Valley Road, Princeton.
Time: 11:00am
