Ten days until the summer solstice and this is what greeted us this morning! The poor bedraggled plant on the right demonstrates why deciduous trees don’t want their leaves in winter. This is one of those days when I feel like someone in the Duckboy card “Montanans for Global Warming” (a photo of a bunch of parka-wearers huddled in deep snow … the Duckboy images are an especially Montana brand of humor).
Yeah, I know, this isn’t really art related. So shoot me. Next week we’ll be back to our irregularly scheduled program, once I’m done with this spate of agility trials taking me away on weekends.

I once camped out without a tent in the mountains near Salt lake on july 4th weekend and woke up with 6 inches of snow on my sleeping bag.
Mountain weather is sometimes very strange and often very unpredictable.

I don’t feel your pain. It’s unseasonally at 90+ here with humidity. Lots of tornados dancing about. Twisters sure change what is really important in life.
Four years ago my daughter Holly and I were in Yellowstone about to drive home to Oklahoma when there came a snowstorm. The Rangers were allowing only 4 wheel drives to pass because of the storm. We were one of four allowed to pass. Three were Jeeps. It was at night, flurries everywhere. Awesome. Incredible. Frightening. Beautiful.
