Transition Day
I expect one last Montana wrap up post in my inbox today or tomorrow. (There were 20 new photos in the shared album when I got up this morning — the usual indication of a great day.) But since our intrepid travelers gather their gear and head east today while I move Control Central from Maryland … Continue reading Transition Day →

Montana – Day 16
Brisk morning, chilly enough for a fire. And a wise decision to postpone our trail ride. The rainy day cleared the haze and put the mountains in sharp relief again. Since it’s chilly, and we’ve got that lovely fire, Kat and I tackle the evil puzzle. We can’t let it win! We break for lunch, … Continue reading Montana – Day 16 →

Montana – Day 15
Back in a former life, I was into crafting. I sewed—even made little overalls, with flies, for my boys—I embroidered, did crewel and needlepoint. I did macrame, canned jellies, refinished furniture. I was, basically, insane. My theory is I was searching for my creative outlet, so when I found it in writing, I gave all … Continue reading Montana – Day 15 →

Montana – Day 14
A late start (what will be Day 15), at least for me. Waking up just past eight is like the middle of the day! Part of the reason was processing Infinity Wars, but that’s for later. Artful pano selfie — please note sign by NR. Photo by j a-b’s phone. Kat and I decided to hit … Continue reading Montana – Day 14 →

Montana – Day 13
What to do after blissful spa services? Maybe puzzle some, and hit the leftovers for a smorgasbord of a lunch at home. Clearly, we picked an evil puzzle that changes the shape of its pieces on its chuckling whim. But we persist. (Mostly Kat persists). Progress is painfully made. Puzzle of evil/NR I finally give … Continue reading Montana – Day 13 →

Montana – Day 12
It’s repetitive to say we had a beautiful day, but I’ll take repetitive beauty on vacation. Hot, but breezy, which is my kind of perfect. After workout—and a slice of bacon BW and Kat brought me back from breakfast, it’s that damn puzzle. The puzzle’s absolutely beautiful, but the pieces are somewhat loose which makes … Continue reading Montana – Day 12 →

Montana – Day 11
Another pretty day in the west as we head off to Garnet Ghost town. It’s not far, but it’s back windy, windy roads where the land rises and falls—lots of rises. Garnet/j a-b You have to wonder why people made a town back there. Easy. Follow the gold. The river winds, too, and panning for … Continue reading Montana – Day 11 →

Montana – Day 10
It’s a good day at home with this and that to do through the morning. One that started off cool, and heated up strong by noon. Following routine, Jason and I walk over for lunch. Spaghetti and meatballs on the buffet? Alrighty then. Just an easy-breezy fuel-it-up time on the porch. Back for Kat to … Continue reading Montana – Day 10 →

Montana – Day 9
As the guys left early for Glacier, and Kat’s doing a webinar test, I write for a couple hours after my workout. It’s just the right amount of time, and in synchronicity, Kat peeks in just as I’m finishing up to see if I want to go over for lunch. Close it down, happily, and … Continue reading Montana – Day 9 →
