Now and then. 61 years apart
The second photo is from June 8th, 1965. It's from the digitized photo archives at the U of M.

A tug of war from 1925
This picture is from the archival photographs of the University of Montana. A Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul General Electric EP-2 ultimately wins a tug of war against two steam locomotives. I'm not sure of the trestle location, but I think it's part of the Milwaukee Road in northern Idaho, which is now the Hiawatha Bike Trail. This route includes 10 tunnels and 7 trestles. This picture is from the archival photographs of the University of Montana.

SW Montana on a cool summer afternoon.
Two views looking SW and west taken about a mile from each other.
It's hot and smokey. Take a break and enjoy this throwback to March 2022.

Puss in Boots showing off his fireworks while lounging on the coffee table
We adopted him a little over two years ago. He's just the sweetest, most cuddly boy.

I posted this area before several years ago, but during the winter season. Here's the summer version.
Three Six Five
It's been a year. After several months, two new rescues have joined us. Vinny and Sadie are good pups and get along great. The new Committee of the Stick and Ball also has been handling unscheduled yard excavations as well. We love them very much. Today is Piper's day, too. Even after a year, it still seems fresh. We wish she was here with us still, but if she was, Vinny and Sadie wouldn't be. Sadie was out of time at her shelter. It was just good fortune that she got connected with us. Blah, blah, everything happens for a reason... A year has put a lot of water under the bridge and we're glad for these new faces with us.

Wilma the toilet attendant displayed her fireworks
I didn't know these could do this. Such a pretty bloom.
This was a rescue after being left behind at a hotel. It's thrived in a bright window and rewarded us with these little flowers.
