我做过的一件不可思议的事情

One night while I was working at a summer camp in Colorado, I had to walk thru a dark thunder storm to get a camper's medicine for the next morning from the nurse. As I walked passed the pig pen, a family of three bears jumped out a few feet in front of me, looked at me, and ran away. I went the other way, into a large open field. Then, a large female goat starting stalking me, and before I knew what was happening, the goat was charging at me full speed. To my happy surprise, the goat was not attacking me, but trying to use me as a shield against the bears. For the next thirty minutes, I could not get the goat to leave my side. I was walking around in circles, in a thunderstorm, with a goat, with a family of bears probably watching the entire thing. True Story.
