Have you seen the press?
Clooney, Heslov, Bearman.
An island’s dirty little secret.
Memories flood in.
Hippies, honey-bear cookies and my best friend Bear.
Carefree days roaming freely.
Wind in my hair.
Sun on my face.
People I looked up to, lived with, laughed with.
Sweet memories.
And then… the screeching brakes of reality.
The curtain pulls back.
Guns.
Drugs.
Indictments.
Disappearing acts.
The rumors, the stories, the news.
Here’s what Sixty Minutes said about it.
It’s only a sliver of the story.
MARTENEY MEDIA 
I was reminiscing on times gone by when I came across this. The boat looked really familiar. Here’s one of it from around 1977 after we had taken it from Lance. It spent about 5 years service with US Customs as an undercover patrol boat off the channel islands.
I’m following you as well. I enjoy your writing and your blog, 🙂

what alley?the one behind Mrs . Luzars house?
I never liked Bear on a leash. It seemed like he always had his own agenda. As soon as I would round the alley I would set him free. He would go his way. I would go my way. Some how we always connected before I hit the alley. Put the leash back on. I always thought nobody was the wiser. Those were fun days.
Dude I was just about to message you the link to this exact article,remember when we would take bear to the park?lol
