Random Montana Stuff
Random Montana Stuff
Montana has been very interesting so far. Of course yesterday I talked about the old towns of Virginia city, and Nevada city. On our way to Virginia city we drove past these guys. I told Al we had to turn around, because ya, a bunch of lumberjacks on the road.
This is team Jack. They were more than happy to pose for me, and we learned that they are part of the Big Sky Rally.
The North American rally is a fund raising event for different organizations, and this year it is Camp Sunshine. They even let me wield an ax.
I am so glad we stopped, they were a blast. We also ran into more teams in Virginia city. What a great event.
This same lookout the night before, had a wonderful sunset. The clouds, the colors. This mountain range is actually to the east, but the colors reflected and it was gorgeous.
My cactus I have been carrying around and babying for 2 years is blooming. In Montana. It actually started getting little buds in Wyoming. I have always heard that captive cactus are hard to get to bloom, so I am pretty dang thrilled. More photos of this little guy when it’s fully open in a day or two.
And Al took a pretty cool photo of us at Nevada City. I’m not much into selfies, but I thought this was unique enough.
Today is the first day of our art show in Kalispell, MT. This is a new show for us, so we are hoping it is a great one.
I just LOVE that you had Al turn around for the Lumberjacks! They all look so happy that you joined them! What a beautiful cactus…awesome that it bloomed for you! Good luck at the show!
Al is great about turning around, or stopping for me. Well, unless we have the RV, then it’s a bit harder.
Hope you have a great show!
Thanks. Me too.
Good morning, BEAUTIFUL! Now that is one cool picture of you with the lumberjacks. OK MEN, HERE COMES MARY! What a lovely feeling to be surrounded by such beefcakes. teeeee
Then your selfie with Al. That is cool….you find the best places, AND your little cactus is darling! We were thinking of getting one for our patio!
Enjoy another peaceful day dear Mary. The world is going berserk; with the latest violence in Nice France (where I lived for a time) is just heartbreaking.
Be well.
We try to find fun places, we always run across something cool. And ya, the world……..
Hello, cool shots of the lumberjacks. I like the selfie shot and the view of the mountains is gorgeous. Good luck with your show! Happy weekend!
Thanks so much.
I love the photos of team jack… it’s probably the first time I saw such a team… thanks for making things “real” for me :o)
They were a hoot, so glad we stopped.
So if you’re in Montana you’re just a few hours south of Calgary…. c’mon north of the border and say hello! We’ve got room and Beaumont would love to meet Roxy and Torrey! :)
Love the photo of Team Jack — and the one Al took of both of you. Very cool
That sunset is amazing. I love how the mountains turn to gold. And the lumberjacks! Wow! What girl doesn’t love a field of lumberjacks?! LOL ;)
Enjoy a fine day of peace.
A posse of lumberjacks; what a find! :)
Great photos, Mary! I hope your show goes well for you!!
How cute all those lumberjacks dressed alike! Good luck at the show!
Wow, such vibrant and beautiful photos! You are living the dream!
What a great bunch of lumberjacks, yourself included. :-) Wish you all the best with the show.
Mary, you never miss a great photo opportunity – love the lumberjacks and all the rest too!
