– It wasn’t just a country music star taking a steamy dip in the Great Smoky Mountains, sugarpie, it was a legit black bear
– The daredevil bear was seen hopping into the heated beauty of a hot tub, throwing off his bear chores, probably thinking ’bout that honey he’s been eyeing.
– He wasn’t going for a quick splash, darling, this fella was in there, all laid back, for a good 15 minutes.
– Jackie Woodward, the lucky lady who had the view, tried to scare off the bear with a yell, but old bear didn’t give two hoots.

– The adventurous bear finally took his leave, rememberin’ he ain’t on a vacation after Woodward banged on the window.

Bet she wasn’t pondering anything like that when planning her little escape.
