The Sweet Grass Hills

This church is in Whitlash at East Butte a tiny community at the end of 40 miles of gravel

A grave all by is it self belonging to Jessie Rowe

Some how they knew someone was buried in spots but didn't know who. There were several unknown's

Looking at Gold Butte. This lone pine tree is the only tree insight

Looking toward West Butte. These volcanic mountains are full of history. They were first important to the Blackfeet Indians. Later miners and then rancher came here. You can see into Canada from the top of West Butte. The elevation at West Butte is 7,000 feet, you can see forever from the top. There are hunting opportunity's moose, deer, antelope & elk roam these prairies. There have been reports of wolves, and I am sure grizzle bears soon.

To get here. Doody cabin can you imagine living here in the early 1920's?

Harrison Lake about 4 miles from the cabin in Glacier Park

Mighty East Side Women in our very over sized waders. Wonderful day in Big Sky Country

Fall

It has been a beautiful fall. It is Oct 12 and it hasn't froze yet, crazy! It can often freeze the end of August. It was 55 at 5:30 am when I went for a walk yesterday. Got to love it. 








Crazy looking carrot had to take a picture.

9/11

Watching 9/11 A state of Emergency on the History Channel. We need to remember!

More of the weekend

Can Peaches
More Apples
Dug Yukon Golds
The best for last, my cousin giving his lovely daughter in marriage. The wedding was at his ranch it was a beautiful wedding.

New Coffee Table

I have a coffee table that I like but is to big for the space in my living room. I had been looking for something inexpensive to replace it with. I found this for $15.00. I have other tables that I had painted black, so this paint job tied things in well.

Home Grown

On Sunday I made this reversible apron for a gift.
Last night we picked these apples. I don't know what I will do with them. In years past I have given them to a friend who has feed them to his animals. This year I thought I would try to make pies with them, as they didn't have the worm problem they normally do.

Huckleberry Tomatoes

Aren't these interesting? I guess you use them like a berry. They are tall and loaded with fruit.

Weekend in the yard

I made a new strawberry bed in a sunnier spot. So Saturday I moved my strawberry plants to their new bed. I dug  garlic, tie up my tomatoes, can beans, and managed to do laundry. I listen to Comfort Food on my I pod while I worked, great day. A mild weekend weather wise it may have gotten to 80 on Saturday but I don't think so, and Sunday cooler yet.

Day off in Glacier Park

I took a day off in the middle of the week and went hiking. I advice everyone to do this. We hiked to Piegan Pass and across to Many Glacier hotel. Perfect day.

Good time with Good friends


Camp Mak-A-Dream is a camp for kids and others who are dealing from cancer. Our daughter worked and volunteered there for 3 summers,  that is how we became familiar with camp. There was a fishing tournament held as a fund raiser for camp so we went, and had friends join us. I feel so blessed to still be friends with someone I have know since first grade. These friends where also high school sweethearts and are still married after 30 years. Wow

My Summer

I have been cleaning my flower bed. Everything was so root bound and grass had gotten in there so it was a big project but done for another how many years... Sorry I didn't take a photo of the finished project it took 3 days to complete.
