Montana Heat Wave.......

     Hello everyone. It is 26 degrees outside and boy does it feel warm. Yes, we Montanans are a bit crazy, but let me explain....

     On Monday, it was 18 below zero with a very cold breeze blowing. On Tuesday and Wednesday it was slightly warmer with no freezing breeze. Believe it or not, in comparison, it truly does feel warm.

     The Rockies have been socked in for several days, appearing like they have simply been erased from the horizon. I pray that when I see them again, they will be loaded with snow. For too many summers in a row, we have endured smoke and ash in July and August as many acres of the spectacular Rocky Mountain Front have burned up.

     This summer we plan to do some camping in our tent. David hasn't wanted to take us to the front because of the danger from Grizzly Bears, introduced a number of years ago by Uncle Sam and his friends. Recently he bought a .44 cal. revolver, which is a necessity if pepper spray doesn't deter the beasts.

     Have a great weekend everyone. Until next week, may God bless and keep you. ...........................................................Denise (prairiemom)

We have had a great deal of rain as well... we are in California and the rain is long overdue! I know it makes for indoor days and chores don't get done quite as fast however, come Summer time we will be giving thanks for the rain this Winter! Have a wonderful week as you abide in HIM, Mrs. Joseph Wood

I'm glad we don't have them. Black bears are bad enough here! Uncle Sam isn't too bright, is he?

We carry bear spray when we hike or camp - is that the pepper spray you are refering to?
