Bear Spotting in Puerto Vallarta!

It has been two weeks since I returned from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I went there during the "Beefdip" week. The Beefdip is an organized week of events such as pool parties, dances, a booze cruise, ATV tour, and much more. More importantly, Beefdip is for bears! What is a "bear" you say? Well, a bear is a man (preferably a gay one) who is hirsuite by nature, usually has some sort of facial hair, and if possible, lots of body hair to go along with it. Be careful....bears are NOT for everyone! But for those of us who like them... WHOOO HOOOOOOO! For the week of January 27th to February 4th, 2007.....Puerto Vallarta was infested with bears...and that was just fine with me.

I met some really nice guys from L.A., Idaho, Washington, Seattle, Dallas, and lots from Toronto! The organizer of Beefdip is from Toronto, you see...so there were lots of guys from there, including a cutie (Joe) that I was quite fond of. He is more of a bear "cub"...but I'll get into the subsects of bears another time. Anyway, here are some pictures for your viewing enjoyment....
