First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park, Ulm, Montana

Traveling home from Alberta, Canada, last week, I bought a couple pieces of chicken from Quigley's Quickstop in Ulm, Montana, then headed west a few miles to enjoy my picnic at First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park. (Side note: ants do not stop for crispy fried chicken crumbs.)

Grill Lines, Hamilton, Montana

In this week's travels around Alberta, Canada, I noticed signs along our route for hot rod meets. These sparked me to review more pics from the car show during Daly Days in Hamilton, Montana. It's funny how much I enjoy the classic curves and smooth lines, because I don't know diddly about cars.

Wild Rose, Present and Future, Missoula, Montana

The wild rose has been among my favourite flowers since childhood. A delicate blossom housing an honest, old-world rose fragrance, Rosa acicularis is the Provincial Flower of Alberta, Canada. I remember breathing their scent during childhood summer rambles, braving prickles to pick short-stemmed, miniature bouquets for my mum or big sisters, who always found a small glass or a teacup.
