Day 192: The Lee Metcalfe National Wildlife Refuge pt1

Thursday, July 12, 2012

Leslee ran over to Hamilton with me for some work I had to do today.  We swung through the Lee Metcalfe National Wildlife Refuge on the way back up to Missoula.  It was very hot (88+) and there were almost no birds around…other than this one! (1/3000s f/6.7 ISO500 400mm -1/2 stop) A Turkey Vulture. […]

Day 191: Toots in the Middle!

Tuesday, July 10, 2012

We had a few stops along the way in Glacier… Our resident rockstar had to look around. This included a stop at Apgar on Lake McDonald. The rock collection still resides in my vest. Eventually we had to move on… …to ice cream! Later that evening we had a turn around Woodland Park in Kalispell. […]

Day 190

Monday, July 9, 2012

We took a little trip up to the Flathead this weekend, to attend my nephew’s wedding.  The trip over Logan Pass (Glacier National Park) was a mere excuse… Toots went with us, and wanted to see waterfalls. She wanted to see the playground, too, but we might have gotten through to her this wasn’t that […]

Lugnut and the Dailylife Wife went to the Safety Fair a week or two ago.  This is the Electric City Derby Grrllzzz. Then it was off to the ambulance!  I don’t know who his girlfriend is… Maybe he will be an ambulance driver! Of course, the back is pretty neat, too. Since this is the […]
