My first black eye


This picture is of Me if you can't tell. A self portrait showing my very first black eye. I was walking in total darkness on the Marathon road just outside of Byron early yesterday morning. Something reached way up, grabbed my foot and threw me down on my face. Knocked off my glasses and cut my eyebrow. I think the rim of the glass is what actually did the cutting. The worst pain however was landing on my chest...that really hurt. It is still somewhat sore today. What did I learn from this? Pick up your feet. And if you are walking in the dark, walk on a smooth surface. Although I've tripped on shaggy carpet!

This caught my eye as we were leaving for Billings this morning. (It's the moon with a planet just below it. Beautiful morning.


This is a picture of the river when David and Kris were here and we were out gathering driftwood.


The same picture June 18th.


This is where we will live. Top floor. 1471 Sourdough, Billings, MT . It is about 25 minutes from the next picture. Or 12 miles.
We will be working here full time...sometime before the 1st of August.

This morning I took off at 5:07 AM to ride my bike to Cowley through the sandhills. It took one hour to get there and one hour to get back with a 30 minute rest between. Of course it is up hill both ways! Coming back I had to get off and push the bike up the hill coming from the cannery to the top of the sandhills. Took about 20 minutes for that. The bike didn't have enough horse power, so I had to give it some assistance with a push! Now my legs feel like logs, dead and immoveable! Other than that I feel great!
