I used to take all my film there. In 1972, I spent part of my vacation in Yosemite. About after week there I drove up to Tuolumne Meadows. One the way up I spotted a bear, sitting on a tree stump, next to the road.

I kid you not, the bear was sitting on the stump like a person with its front paws crossed in its lap! I stopped and took photo after photo as it carefully watched me moving around.

As soon as I got back (after the second week), I excitedly told everybody and dropped the film off at Fotomat. I got back photos of some people at the beach! I went back numerous times to try to get my photos found. I was unsuccessful.

And that was the LAST time I ever used Fotomat.
