Introduction to One Native Son's California Mountain Lion Stories

There is no logical explanation for why I see them so often when others don't.  Could the cougar be my totem?  I don't really believe in that, not seriously; I don't understand totems honestly.  Still, for some reason I see these big cats when others don't.  The mountain lions for their part see me even more than I see them I'm sure.  There seems to be a connection between these mountain lions and I, which is disconcerting considering the mortal danger.

Coincidence, totem, or chance, whatever, it's time I put my notes to journal.  What follows are my encounters with mountain lions in California.  I wonder if reading this will make you feel a little closer to these big cats.  Or will it, perhaps, raise your hair on end just a bit?  Let me know.
