2 months agoSomething in family Asteraceae... Possibly great blanketflower. There are dozens of yellow, many petal species in that area.

Beautiful scenes of the Clark Fork. I'm impressed with Amber's fortitude. A fractured clavicle is no picnic. Glad to see you had a beautiful day.
2 months agoBut, where is the caboose? That feels like false advertising. I am such a sucker for unusual stays. I really liked the look of those silos between Waterton and Pincher Creek. We have a yurt, later on. Let's see if I like it so much when I'm walking to the bathhouse for a midnight run!

2 months agoThanks Bill,
I looked at a couple of different I’d sites and think maybe it’s Echium vulgare, Vipers bugloss, Blueweed. I changed the caption but would love to know what you think.
I’m familiar with that model. We are of the same vintage!
Jacinto and I spent a night at a nondescript motel in Pinnacle. The one run by the Korean lady. I wonder if the place your inn keepers ran is the Isaac Walton down the road a piece? That’s the $$$ train motel that I would have loved to stay at, but I just couldn’t spend that much when there was a cheaper, adequate alternative.
I was curious, too! Thanks for posting.

That ride along Lake Koocanusa is gorgeous. We did it going the other way last year. Wonderful to see it again through your pictures. Enjoy the next stage, it's a beaut.
