This summer is very hot for all of us, it seems.
WCCO reported that Duluth, Minnesota, resident Dave Zbaracki noticed something was on his back patio, and the visitor was a surprising one.
"I guess he just wanted to cool off, so we left him alone," Zbaracki wrote.
"And no, that's not our dog."
It was a black bear.
Zbaracki also caught the bear, which he said has been spotted in the area before and named Bert by a local photographer, grabbing lunch at his neighbor's house before getting in the pool.
"I'm just happy my kids decided to sleep in," Zbaracki wrote in a comment.
Let's hope Bert waited an hour before taking a dip.
