    Nice country makes for great pictures. We were in Great Falls last summer it is beautiful up there, the picture below was taken with Mirror Lake in the back ground. Wait untill you get over by Flathead Lake, and the Missouri River is wider and deeper than any river we have in Colorado. Let us know if it actually freeze over in the winter. I wouldn't mind living there if it weren't so cold in the winter. As it is I only have Pikes Peak to look at off my deck.

    I'll see if I can get a good picture off the deck (porch) tomorrow. Snow is all gone now just a big ole rock sticking 14,100 ft in the air.
    Yes, the North Pole is still there with Santa's work shop. Kind of a kiddy thing, is cool anyway.

    There's grear riding in MT, like you say, Flathead Lake, White Suphur Springs, ..heck just about place in that State..even where it flattens out in the east ain't bad neither. Chris when you go to Sturgis next take the highway 12 from Roundup to Forsyth....nice ride then you can either go thru Miles City down to Broadus or head down to Lame Deer and take the 212. I really like the road over to Lolo..been a while since i've done that one., we're practically neighbors...once you get past our socialized health care..[tip of the toque to Goose on this] we ain't so bad.

    PS...nice paint.
