Running dogs in Town

Almost Snowed In

This is a picture of Kim's van and the car, which we had to leave in Red Lodge.
Bryan worked on digging out for a couple hours. A nice neighbor came by with his plow and cleared a path. But we were still stuck so he pulled the truck out. At one point we thought Kim was going to have to get a sub. When we finally got to Billings, we didn't have any electricity. It seemed like we were camping because Bryan lit the Coleman lantern and Kim put candles all over.

Big Snow

4 Feet High and Rising

How high's the snow, Mama? She said it four feet high and rising. It actually snowed some much in Red Lodge that we couldn't get out of town to go run the sled.

This picture was taken early Saturday and that was just the beginning.

Busy, Busy Fall

As you can tell from my lack of post, Kim has been super busy and super sick. Starting on her 40th b-day and for about two weeks she was very sick. She seems to be better now but is still playing caught up. A week ago we went camping for the first time this season. It was a good trip. Fall has come to Red Lodge but we are still getting in some fall hikes on the tundra. As you can see the leaves are all changing colors. The sled dogs are getting excited for winter. I on the other hand am not a sled dog.

Kim is the Big Four Zero

So I can't believe Kim is 40. I don't think she looks a day over 39. Her friends at work (notice the color everyone is wearing) made a BIG to-do about it, with a cake, pizza, and they even decorated her classroom. Rudy (the janitor) was really excited about vacuuming up 40 confetti but he help rearrange all the desk. Her students had a lot of fun. Can you believe she is ten times older than her students?

Bryan, the sled dogs, and I were going to take her to Bozeman for the weekend but she caught a cold for her birthday. Guess that is what happens when you get so old. None of us wanted to hang out with her. Actually I think we will take her when she is feel better. I think a break from the "sled dogs" is probably the best gift we could give her.

Roses!

On August 29, Bryan and Kim celebrated their 16th Anniversary. Bryan surprised Kim by sending her these beautiful peach roses at work. She was very surprised.
Bryan and Kim didn't get to go to Jackson Hole for Labor Day Weekend. It has been a tradition but Bryan ended up working and with school starting Kim was too busy.

We all hung out in Red Lodge. The sled dogs and I thought it was better than being stuck in the camper in a campground.

This weekend the weather was cold and snowy. Saturday we all went hiking on top of the pass in the snow. The sled dogs and I really enjoyed the cool weather.
