Day 37: Winter at Rainbow Falls

I had a few choices lined up for this post, but I decided to take advantage of the snowy day. (1/500, f11, 38mm, ISO 320, +1/2 stop) Detail #1 (1/350, f11, 56mm, ISO 320, +1/2 stop) Detail #2 (1/350, f11, 112mm, ISO 320, +1/2 stop) See what you and Walter are missing, Robyn? ~Curtis in […]

Day 36

We saw a couple of varmints out in the backyard this morning… A Downy Woodpecker. (1/125, f5.6, 300mm, ISO 400, +1/2 stop) Another no good birdseed stealin’ Skwerl! (1/15, f11, 135mm, ISO 200) ~Curtis in the Barrow Memorial Urban/Backyard Wildlife Reserve and Cafe! {!-{>

Day 35

The Old Home Place #5.  next door to 280, Mom had this nice log home built, 282 West Sixth.  It was also on the river.  Drama time: the builder mis-appropriated a lot of Mom’s money so it was never quite finished when we had it.  The gal that bought 280 from us (in the next […]

Day 34

The Old Home Place #4…280 West Sixth Street, Whitefish.  (I know it says 202 on the post, but they renumbered everything in 1977, I think it was…).  This home was on Whitefish River.  THAT was fun!  It looks pretty much the same from the front, other than the carport was grass and a sidewalk, and […]

Day 33

The Old Home Place…#3.  I will find of Numbers 1 & 2 and submit them also at some point.  This is the first house we lived in when we moved to Whitefish in 1967.  519 Skyles Place.  Back then there was a different fence (Dad made it from 10 cent stud 2×4’s), grass instead of […]

Day 32: The End of the Party…

Heather and John came by.  Of course Heather and Toots wear the same…helmet size… At last; I have my helmet back.  Let’s go roller skating! The other Birthday Girl gets a Secret… Another pair! (And just to show how good Auto Focus is on these new digital cameras, please note the blinds on the window […]

Day 31: Yup. More Birthday!

Oh Boy!  Presents at last… It is all of the Give a Mouse a Cookie books! Oh Boy!  Stuff to wear! Thanks Auntie Lauree! Wow.  This is a big card!!! I’ll just tear it open here… …this is a lot of work.  An Ariel card! What the heck is this? It is a guitar! It […]

Day 30: More Birthday!

Almost, Dad! Try it again… YEA!!! Mmmmm….cake. Yummie! Yup. It is pretty good. There seems to be some blue stuff on me, though… You call that blue?  That’s not blue. THIS is blue! Mmmwaaa. *** ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 29: The Cake and Edith, too!

Home for the traditional cake flambe…with limited flames due to being four years old… Oh Boy!  Cake! (All photos on Auto with Flash) Balloons! Awwwww…. I got Ariel! See?  Ariel! Ballons! I got a balloon! What a pair… Where is that cake lady?  Oh, there she is! Gotta blow out the last one… Awwww…. *** […]
