And it looks like you're having a lot of fun.

Good for you.; 8/15/12, 12:57 PM

I hope you're using sunscreen young lady.; 8/15/12, 1:17 PM
dbp said...: In the hilly areas you might see a woody bush with small roundish leaves and purple/blue berries that look a lot like blueberries. These are huckleberries and are really good.; 8/15/12, 1:19 PM

Richard Dolan said...: What, no sidewalks? And, besides, the color scheme is way too green. Badly lit as well.; 8/15/12, 3:06 PM

Sharps Arms are in Big Timber, I thought it was Big Sky. Still a great place.; 8/15/12, 3:47 PM

Real fish. They can't close them. I wondered about my fish because now the plants are taking over the fish have to squeeze through and they can't close their eyes and I'm thinking

Joe Schmoe said...: That's a wide stance ya got there, Ann. Must be a result of the mountain country. Now do you believe Larry Craig? He was from out West, if I recall.; 8/15/12, 6:16 PM

chickelit said...: We can plead, beg, coerce, demand, expect some people to have the ability to take care of themselves. It won't happen, some will never, don't have the ability, brains, desire, gumption, etc to do it. They will always be our responsibility as a civilized society. We won't let poor Floyd Corkins be harmed at the hands of an angry right wing mob if we can help it.; 8/15/12, 8:15 PM

I hope you didn't run into any bears or Black people.; 8/15/12, 10:20 PM
chickelit said...: I think the notion that there are no black people in Montana is an urban legend. Unless Althouse's recent photos were staged.; 8/15/12, 11:10 PM
