Kalispell & Glacier....Almost!

Image
Never made it to Kalispell or Glacier. The alternator in my Chevy truck went out just as we entered East Glacier. I called O'Reily's in Kalispell which is 90 miles away and tried to order a new alternator but they wouldn't take my credit card over the phone. I ending up getting Michele's daughter, Heather; who lives in Kalispell, to order and pay for the part online with my credit card then go to O'Reily's and pick up the part. By the time we got this done is was after 8:00PM and rather than have Heather drive out from Kalispell that evening Michele and I decided to find a Motel in East Glacier. Now, East Glacier is a tourist trap in the summer time but in the winter its pretty much a ghost town but we managed to get a Motel room close to the truck. There was one little diner open and we had a small diner before heading back to the Motel. On the way back to the Motel, we past the only open bar and decided on a drink. The bar was very interesting to say the least

Kalispell & Glacier

Well not much has been happening around here lately so I haven't been writing, but things are gonna change because I'm heading to Kalispell after work and will be spending some time in Glacier. I will have some new pictures and a story or two next week. In other news I got new tires put on my motorcycle yesterday and it snowed 4-6 inches. I did however managed to drive it home and got a lot of looks from fellow drivers. Well have a good weekend everyone and will chat next week.

I wish we had this much snow in Great Falls. This snow fall is near Essex, Montana

Trying not to get sick

My co-worker Michele has been battling a nasty cold for over a week and I'm trying not to get it. It seems like a lot of people have it around here. Other than that not much has been happening. I am glad to see that the days are getting longer. It means I can actually do stuff after work besides just going home and watching movies, or reading. I got the motorcycle out a few times this month, but now it's snowing today. I'm sure I'll have plenty of time for riding in the coming months.

A Super (Bowl) Weekend

The weather was really nice here so the weekend was very enjoyable. Didn't do too much after work on Saturday but drive to Helena and see a few friends. Sunday I met up with Michele and her daughter for brunch at a local Casino. After Brunch Michele and I headed off to do a little shopping before venturing into the mountains to test shoot a new firearm I purchased recently before heading to a friends house to watch the Super Bowl. At the Party, I was the only one rooting for the Steelers and 5 other people were fro the Cardinals and we know who won.
