Day 238

Saturday, September 1, 2018

My friend Jim took my old boss Vance and I out to the Air Museum at Malmstrom AFB, MT.  Here is some of what we saw. This is Jim and Vance.  They are a couple of (nice!) Air Force types.  The painting is of Col. Malmstrom who died on a flight shortly after he arrived […]

Success!  Remember the pineapple upside-down cake from a couple of days back?  Well, I tried it again in the full sized crockpot.  Success! While still cooking… !!! ~Curtis in /\//\ontana! {!-{>

Day 235

Tuesday, August 21, 2018

There is a good reason I don’t like to edit photos after 10pm.  Apparently I shouldn’t build stuff after dinner, either. We finished up about 11:30pm after working most of the day it got to 102F in Kalispell.  We broke for dinner at Famous Dave’s..and came back and put the bed board base section on […]

Day 234

Tuesday, August 21, 2018

More trailer building! The master cutter at work!  We kept coming up with stuff that fit and was straight or an actual 90 degrees.  That worried us a lot. The cargo portion nearing completion. Somewhat dubious looks…{!-{P Fitting the tent/sleeping compartment on top of the cargo section. And no, it isn’t a coffin. ~Curtis in […]

Day 233

Tuesday, August 21, 2018

The beginnings of trailer construction.  The planning has only been 31 years in the making… The basic under carriage. Checking on the frame fit. It is easier to paint before construction on some parts. Starting to attach the pieces! And as a reward for our hard work, I made a pineapple upside-down cake!  In a […]

Day 232

Tuesday, August 21, 2018

Another great change at Big Mountain (whoops!  Whitefish Mountain Resort…) is the summer activities. The Zipline that the GrandPop went on is one of them.  Here are a couple more: This is called “Strider”.  It is a motocross course…for little kids.  They ride bikes without pedals (see the closeup photo) and just push around the […]

Day 231

Tuesday, August 21, 2018

The real purpose of my trip to Kalispell, besides the Dailylife Grandpop’s 93 Birthday, was to build a camper trailer to pull behind my 1995 Goldwing.  My old trailer sacrificed a lot of parts for this! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 230

Tuesday, August 21, 2018

From my recent trip to the Dailylife Grandfolks: Naptime!  Okay, my niece’s dog is awake.  For the photo.  He left me a present in the night, too.  No, not quite that…a sock he had eaten and barfed up just for me.  Left it in front of the bedroom door where I was sure to, errr, […]

I was down by the River yesterday.  Here are two Kormorants.  And a couple interlopers… ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>
