Pre-PC pics


On the (slow) drive through Eastern Montana we took a break at Pompey's Pillar outside of Billings.
It was a beautiful day and we were the only ones up there.

On the way back to MT on Amtrack - lots of delays and at the end of the train ride we got to watch another sun rise again
The Big One!

Spring Wildflower Trillium - on Blodgett Canyon Hike

Yes, I did put a picture of my scrapbook page on our blog... (This one's for you Liz!)
The greatest romantic getaway - that we know of anyways... we are open to suggestions though:-)

The magical sun-porch, really - look at those windows! There was a blooming apple tree just outside too:-)

Nice views of Flathead Lake

The Apple Tree for Grandpa Stanley
Since we lost the other photos :-( We decided to take a pic in the living room with the new belt
Wow! look at all this stuff - will it all fit?

Shane will make it fit!

And so will Carol! It all did fit - we were just under the 100lb each limit. Pretty crazy choices and re-packing a couple of times. But, we both have a new life skill - which is to be able to get all of the air out of a gallon zip-lok bag that has lots of rolled up clothing in it!

  3. Wow! I've been under that Lift bridge in Duluth before! Bruce and I went with my dad to see Lake Superior! We also ate a huge caramel apple at Rocky Mountain Candy Co. not far from the shore there in Duluth.
    I really like the "Carol doing tree pose" pic too. :) And the sunsets look gorgeous.
