Pop Colour Clouds - Missoula, Montana

"I know that if odour were visible, as colour is, I'd see the summer garden in rainbow clouds."

 - Robert Bridges (1844-1930)

Blue Skies - Missoula, Montana

"Blue skies....smilin' at me..." from behind sun-whitened cotton candy wisps of cloud...

We are revelling in these perfect spring days while they last, knowing that more rain is in Western Montana's forecast.

"...Blue days...all of them gone...

Nothin' but blue skies from now on..."

Spring Kayaking - Brennan's Wave, Missoula, Montana

"I have never seen a river that I could not love. Moving water . . . has a fascinating vitality. It has power and grace and associations. It has a thousand colors and a thousand shapes, yet it follows laws so definite that the tiniest streamlet is an exact replica of a great river."

 -- Roderick Haig-Brown (1908-1976)
