Oh, The People You Meet In Montana!

A unique advertisement!?! How could we resist?

We stopped for a huckleberry shake
right before we entered Glacier National Park.
(about 2 miles past the Mystic Vortez
and 1 mile before the park's west entrance)
I'm not making this up!
We passed TWO Mystic Vortexes in Montana .
This might explain their customers . . .
and a few other things.


Apparently, we picked a celebrity hot spot!
The only person missing was Elvis.

Someone asked, "Did you go to 'West' Yellowstone?

OF COURSE !!! . . .

and the only bears we saw
were these . . .

These bears were in a 'picinic basket' rehab center -
too much time spent hanging with Yogi.
You should see what they can do with a Coleman cooler!

Still Faithful . . .

Happy Anniversary, Mr. W.

Is that a halo on Mr. W?

Oh What A Difference Three Days Make . . .

From this (July 4th) . . .

to this (July 7th)!

Road Trip Part II - Our Five Star Motel

How do you not love a motel that offers CNN on a flat screen TV, bobcat (also badger, various deer/elk heads, feathers - some with birds and some without - and a bear with a Ranger hat with silk flowers at his feet), a popcorn machine and a PC with printer - all conveniently located in the lobby/continental breakfast area.


Nothing says vacation more than eating Fruitloops on a log table with a bobcat, bear and badger while watching the CNN AM report. A Five-Star Fancy Nancy rating for sure!

Did I mention the wagon on the roof?

HAPPY 4th of JULY!

Veterans' Memorial - Pleasant Grove Cemetery - Memorial Day 2009

Patriotism is not short,
frenzied outbursts of emotion,
but the tranquil and
steady dedication of a lifetime.
