Two of RoadsideWonders’ most prolific contributors are back! Bill and Jo both share their photos of the Cherokee Art Bears — located in Cherokee, North Carolina.

Eastern Band of Cherokee artists created over 2 dozen art bears; each has its own place of honor throughout the town.

I love these bears and I actually took some pictures of them when Jo and I were in North Carolina in 2007. Jo & Bill both took better pics than I; so I’ll leave mine in the shoebox for now
