Ciwt is waiting out our San Francisco heat wave (aka unseasonably warm and delightful fall weather elsewhere).

*Even though Pooh Bear isn't Polar, Ciwt thinks it's kind of  interesting to know: Their bulky build and swinging gait cause polar bears to use more than twice as much energy to move at a given speed than most other mammals. The average walking speed of a polar bear is 5.5 kph (3.4 mph). When being chased or charging prey, polar bears can run as fast as 40 kph (25 mph) for short distances.
