A coupe of photos of a pet peeve of mine: Windmills.  Windmills are touted as environmentally friendly/responsible/cost effective…NONE of them would be up and running (when they do…ignoring required downtime for maintenance, the wind doesn’t always blow, even in /\/\onTana!) with out massive subsides.  The blades are only lasting half as long as predicted, at […]

While recently taking cars to Billings for Avis, we stopped in the Amish Deli & Market at Eddie’s Corner.  Real Wisconsin Maple Syrup!  The half gallon was about $35; I think the full gallon was $58… ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

A quick trip with Avis to Belgrade to pick up some cars.  Not the brand-spankin’-new-Broncos-with-the-bags-on-the-seats.  Maybe next week!
