I have posted a bunch of pictures of Patrick at his Tae Kwon Do class last week. It was fun to see what the new camera was capable of. I hope you enjoy them.

Weekend Visit

We had a bit of a snowstorm on Thursday so I didn't journey out to Absarokee and instead stayed home to work on other things.  What I was really holding out for was a drive to the house with Jörg so we could discuss paint colors.  I have included a sneak peek below.  It was a beautiful sunny day so the snow was melting off the roof and dripping everywhere.  Normally I would say it was a beautiful sound, a harbinger of spring and warming weather.  However, living in Montana, this is just one of several such sunny drippy days and we could still have snow again before summer is officially here.  Anyway, the painter has begun the work of covering things that don't get painted (like the beams) and taping the windows.  He plans to start priming walls this week. The tiler also plans to start working this week.  She will be tiling the master shower and two bathroom floors, and hopefully the kitchen and pantry walls. As we were driving away, our builder wa...

Wild Weather

In twenty-five years of living in Vermont, we saw some wild weather; big snows, ice storms, high winds, lots of rain...but I don't think we ever had so much rain fall from the sky at one time that the roads turned to rivers and the air turned to water.  It doesn't last long (the rain slowed down to a more civil "drizzle" in less than ten minutes) but it's pretty amazing to watch.  This raid took place on Monday (August 12th). When it rains like this, rocks and dirt get washed into the streets.  Within one or two days, the town sends out their street sweepers (the big machines that vacuum up debris and clean the roadways) to clean things up.  I have seen more sweeping action here in two months than I saw in twenty-five years in Vermont. This is one of the street sweepers.  I captured this picture at the end of the 4th of July parade.  In Vermont, the end of a parade is declared by the police car that rolls through as the last vehicle.  Here in Livingsto...

A Little Catching Up

It has been reasonably quiet around here lately; well, quiet in terms of nothing interesting to report.  So, here is a little update on the not-worth-a-whole-post happenings. December 31st; I came home from running errands to find a herd of deer relaxing in our "yard".  About six of them got up and moved away but these two were pretty committed to staying put just outside our door. January 5th; We got a good Montana snow!  Montana has a completely different attitude toward snow from what we were used to in Vermont.  In Vermont, the municipalities would run the snow plows until there was no snow left on the road and many towns would haul snow away to clear parking areas. In Montana, it is assumed that you drive a suitable vehicle for the environment and have the sense to put on good snow tires.  Chains are an option here as well as studded tires.  Meanwhile, it's every driver for themselves.  The state will make sure that at least one lane (each directi...
