My family is very fun and loving. A way you can describe my dad is that he always makes dad jokes and embarrasses me making dad jokes, but he is kind and sweet. My parents are divorced so I have some step siblings and stepparents. My mom is very kind and loving and so is my sister. Four years ago, I went camping with my dad, stepsister and sister. We went to Sunset Oaks for the night and when we go camping or go to hotels, we go swimming 3 or 4 times a day. When my dad, sister and stepsister were coming back from the pool a bear came walking out of the forest and was not that far away from us. It was a baby bear so that means the mamma bear was probably close. When we saw the bear, my dad told us to stay still but my sister watched a YouTube video about bears and when you see a black bear you are supposed to make a lot of noise to scare it off, so she did that and it ran back into the woods. This was scary but it must have been scarier for the man walking where we were but he was only a couple inches away from the bear!
