Helena, MT High 87 Low 56
This post is really a conglomeration of things.
I finally got a couple of decent pictures of a bird. I am so excited. In the second one you can see the fish he(she) caught and in the third one he is chowing down on dinner.
I have found the most wonderful blog that is all about Montana’s history. Montana Moments by Ellen Baumler is well worth a visit if you have an interest in Montana. Amazing the things I don’t know about my home state.
Went to dinner with Judy and Don last night and I am the only one who enjoyed their food. Even Jim didn’t finish his and for those of you who know him, that just doesn’t happen. I think we’re going to try again this week-end at a different restaurant. So if you’re in Helena, I’d recommend you not eat at the Bull’s Eye.
Not happy news – my niece, Kim, is not going to India. Seems there was a problem with the paperwork getting lost which would allow her to get her Visa. I’m not sure exactly all what happened, but she’s really upset and I feel bad for her. She gave up her apartment and now has no place to live and doesn’t know what she’s going to do.
Hi Sandie, Oh My--that RV fire looked horrible. Glad it was not worse...
ReplyDeleteSorry about Kim's trip... Is there still a possibility she can go--maybe later? That's too bad.
Bad restaurants!!!! We've been to a few ourselves... So sorry.
Beautiful photo of your bird. I love my backyard birds here --and feed them. SO much fun.
Hugs,
Betsy
Osprey is my favorite raptor
ReplyDeleteI will avoid the Bull's Eye, thanks for the tip.
How sad for the people whose rigs caught on fire. At least no lives were lost. I have seen on the internet and tv how fast these go up in flames. I wonder why?
ReplyDeleteGreat Osprey pictures.
Excellent bird picture!
ReplyDeleteRv fires can happen, glad no one was hurt.
great bird pictures. those refrigerator fires are really awful!
ReplyDeleteHow awful on the fire. I hope no one was injured & they can get full value of their rigs back. Hope none of them were fulltimers...it would so suck for sure.
ReplyDeleteAlso sorry to hear about your niece. I'm sure she's deeply dissapointed, not to mention stressed.
The Osprey pics are great!
I've always wondered how paperwork can get lost. It's happened enough to me. Funny, none of my IRS tax bill paperwork ever gets lost. You must have trained them well (thanks a lot!). ;c)
ReplyDeleteHopefully your niece gets another chance to go to India quickly.
Great pictures of the Osprey with the fish. Was Jin jealous of that catch? :cD
Not good news for Kim....I am sorry for her disappointment and troubles.
ReplyDeleteThe osprey photos are awesome! I love bird pictures..and am always trying to perfect them! It does take lots of patience and practice.
Refrigerator fires are a big concern for all od us. And at an RV park...so glad no one was hurt?
Great pictures Sandie. That bird must be this year's chick and that's great he/she is fishing for itself.
ReplyDeleteThe fire - scary. Your niece - sorry for her stress.
I enjoy going to a restaurant but after getting food poisoning I find myself eating out less. I believe all things happen for a reason and Kim may be disappointed but maybe something good will come out of it. Fridge fires scare me too... I wonder if there is some kind of maintenance to prevent those fires?
ReplyDeleteNice osprey photos! That RV fire is so scary. We keep our smoke alarms up to date and hope everyone else does as well. So sorry about Kim's trip... maybe she can get it sorted out and get there eventually. I hope so....
ReplyDeleteUsually you give rave reviews about a restaurant. This one must be very bad.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about Kim. I was looking for an update about her trip. I hope she finds a place very quickly.
I think fires in RV'snd high rises scare me to death!
ReplyDeleteWe both loved the link you provided to Montana Moments. Michael said when his graduating class of 1963 took their senior trip, one of the places they stopped was the Deer Lodge prison where they met Paul Eitner--it's the blog post from July 31 in Montana Moments. Eitner wrote the class one of his checks for a million dollars--Mike says he doesn't know what ever happened to the check.
ReplyDeleteThere you've got a good reason not to go into a packed RV-Park. With thousands of RVs burning in the U.S. every year it's a scary undertaking to be only 6+feet from your neighbour. I love desert camping.
ReplyDeleteLove your Osprey pictures. Those really turned out great! We've had rotten luck lately with restaurants, food and the service we get. It's not fun for sure.
ReplyDeleteNice job on those Osprey photos for sure & yep, I agree with Peter:))
ReplyDeleteI'm going to print out that picture of the rigs on fire to show to people who want to park to close to me. Of course my comfort space is about 50 feet.
ReplyDeleteGreat osprey photos, congrats
