Guest guest Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I got this from an old friend today This bridge is on the Old Donner Pass Highway . It has a spectacular view of Don ner Lake and Don ner Pass on Route 80. A bear was walking across Rainbow Bridge (Old Hwy 40 at Don ner Summit, Truckee ) on Saturday when two cars also crossing the bridge scared the bear into jumping over the edge of the bridge. Somehow the bear caught the ledge and was able to pull itself to safety. Au thorities decided that nothing could be done to help Saturday night so they returned Sunday morning to find the bear sound asleep on the ledge.After securing a net under the bridge the bear was tranquilized, fell into the net, lowered, then woke up and walked out of the net.There is a moral to this story: you know this old bear made a wrong move and found he was hanging by his nails. Somehow he was able to pull himself up onto the ledge where he saw he was in a very bad, impossible situation and what did he do? Yep, he took a nap and sure enough the LORD took care of situation while he was asleep.The moral is that whe n confronted with a bad situation, sometimes the best solution is to take a nap and let the Lord take care of the rest.
