the frost has stuck in the park
went to visit the salmon at Carkeek park, they're back!
looks like so much hard work makes one think about the drive and desire to reproduce and how many human folks would do it were they to have to do it the way Salmon do it.
The frost had settled all day and now into the next evening, will it thicken in the night? Talula hopes to gather it all (no matter how little and long that should take) into a ball to then throw at her father.
Montana Agate
When in Montana the one stone to find is Montana Agate. Apparently once prolific in and along the Yellowstone river now very rare indeed. I cheated I purchased thing slices from a couple different rock shops in Montana. Some of it is very scenic and other more patterns, another of nature's little amazements which is hidden in the disguise of just a old grey rock, unassuming until you break it open and slice it thinly then we see the full magic.
purple pepper
Purple Pepper grown in Montana, eaten in Montana.
For such richness this pepper was more like a green pepper in flavoring and not necessarily worth the splurge other then to know that in future unless I need a purple pepper for a photograph I am best sticking with my favorite peppers the red, orange and yellow peppers.
Purple pepper you may be pretty but you don't taste all that.
looks 10 taste 2.
