Salmonster's Last First Day of Summer in Missoula
(public topic in Day In Pictures)

Avatar Image   Started by salmonster salmonster has 982 Grupie Points 1 year ago         Lots of Comments! 10 Comments

This time I set up 18 events on my Google Calendar and had reminders text messaged me for each one at the top of the hour. So I pretty much managed a picture every hour on the hour. But not quite. It was a long day because I wanted to acknowledge my last Summer Solstice in Missoula by bookending it with some of the simple outdoors adventures that are so easy here. Please vote on the pics, my photography is rusty and I could use some input.

I give you a mighty fine example of the interior decorating in a USDA Forest Service research center from the 1950's.

Thanks. I hope you do another one soon. I love to see your life in Argentina. My grandparents grew up there. I always hear stories and hope to visit, but have not yet.

yup, we should just post the days as we feel like, I mentioned that in that mega long thread up front. that way there is no stress, we choose the day and show it to others. a special day in our life might not be a special day in someone elses... this here is the perfect example... let carry on that way. well done salmondster

Cause it's her last first day of summer, and I like having her around as a neighbor and a friend.
