Hey Bears, well this is my first real Blog ( remember this is private not public, go to tribe if you want to post public posts), the issue i want to keep conversing about is the Copyright bbr at the bottom of the site,, personaly im allittle indifferent but more to the side of better safe than sorry, however, we have agreed to attribute photos to the rightful photo taker and art ( if i missed any on the site im working on it, me and janjaap are working on the old ones to get proper dates ext.) this issue has come up a few times , so i thought maybe we should bring this up at thanksgiving ( i wont be there) and put it to a vote with the family, does anyone agree with that..
my vote is “to leave it on”, Elsa marely has one on her sight, most folks do. some folks unfortuantly could be malacious, its just a chicken coop with a latch so the wolfs dont get in, nothing against the wolfs, its just thier nature to want to eat fresh chickens, but the chickens are safe and viewable from the possible negatives of the world. that was probably the lamest analogy, but for now the best i could come up with.. heres another to me having the copyright thing is like making sure folks share food equally at the ranch, with the last group of folks that were up there (6 months ago) almost all of them had seperate boxes of food in the step down , in a way thats like copyright infringment to me. if someone steals part of the site that we have put up and photos are art are whatever claiming them as thiers, than its “seperation”, we arent seperating ourselves by putting copyright bbr, its actually the opposite because our intentions are pure and for everyone.
anyway im for the copyright bbr, its like keeping the bear clean…
wow my first real blog.
love ya all davey

hey folks, we’ve currently got 4 double mattresses and 1 single mattress on the floor for visitor sleeping in the upstairs mainhouse….if anyone has a few more old mattresses they’d like to donate when they come up for Turkey Day they can always be used for that space….we’re continually making that space more welcoming for visitors to stay in and mattresses are always a need……decent old blankets are a good thing as well…..thanks and we’ll see ya’ll for turkey!

Thanks Dave and Beth for getting this thing together and up and running. I hope that everyone who has received a password into the family blog will use it often.
