The content is "not too hot" and "not too cold,"
but in your typical bear-fashion, "Just right!!"..:))

(as is everything you do)

Now here is a photograph of when I was at the ...

Ezra Meeker at the Dedication of
the End of the Old Oregon Trail, 1906

...no, wait!! - shucks, I never got west of Montana's Big Sky country, and the Rockies all the way down the spine..:(
(and I'm not really THAT old!)

In Montana, though, I was within 26 miles of the headwaters of the Missouri River, surprisingly narrow there, the highway paralleling it.

I *swear* I *saw* the ghost of the vessel with Lewis and Clark aboard, just before they had to get out and walk the rest of the way to the Pacific!

I would love to see Oregon after all the wonderful PR from Tonk and Sam and others who have seen it....

Hey hey Sistah! That picture of the ruts in the desert reminds me of the time our bus broke down in Wyoming. It was right on that Overland Trail and you could see the ruts just like that.
