Bear Ranch is a good neighbor

Dear Editor:

We are from Ohio and have some property near Bear Ranch in Somerset along the Anthracite Creek. We borrowed our neighbor's backhoe to do some excavation on our land.

After I got it stuck in the mud, I went to the Bear Ranch office and met Rob Gill. I told him about my problem, hoping he would give me a name to call for help. Instead, he radioed one of his employees to come help me. Within 20 minutes, three people showed up with a large cat loader and chains and proceeded to get me out. They would not accept any payment. I'm very appreciative for their help, and I feel very lucky to have them as a neighbor.
