    Worst Hotel you’ve ever stayed at ..

    My brother and I go back to our room for supper. Leftover bbq from the reunion! We finish and go back outside, and now the sun is beginning to set, and the Motel 6 takes on a new form of life. Many new arrivals who aren't guests, and some who are, begin pouring in. We spend some identifying the...

    Worst Hotel you’ve ever stayed at ..

    (Warning: LONG story) Life is so weird and subjective, you know? Sometimes I don't even know what to make of it. In this particular case, what might be considered an awful experience by some might considered one of the more exciting and interesting experiences at a hotel. So I spend a lot of...

    Anyone in the Kalispell Area Missing a Husky?

    Did they ever say how it tasted?

    Glacier NP trip

    Working for USDA these days, can confirm that almost none of the recreation systems work 100%, and are very easy to bog down. My whole office just signed a massive complaint to the state office about how our networks flat out just don't work sometimes. People complain that the phone system...

    Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana?

    Y'all think they'll make Chinese spy balloons general tag or draw this year?

    Best towns to live/retire in Montana?

    I just moved onto the Flathead reservation, and I like it quite a bit. There are some oddball little issues around the whole non-tribal member thing (you think the state overcharges for NRs, you should see the fees these guys charge for NRs of the rez, sheesh), but overall it's actually pretty...

    Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?

    Depends on what anyone's bar for BS is. For me, it's somewhere in the middle. It's easily one of my least favorite Montana towns, but I'd prefer it over a lot of other places outside of the state. I just moved onto the Flathead reservation, and while they have their own idiosyncrasies, I...

    Arctic blast

    Front porch ice cream was a success! Firm, pretty smooth (could be smoother, though), and a pretty dang good flavor. Would do again.

    Arctic blast

    I feel like we should make the most of this brisk weather. Anyone have a good ice cream recipe to share? I think it's supposed to firm up pretty good around -5. Growing up in the south, we always had to use the little machines.

    Drink tokens

    Part 2: Along the way, I tell him about how I was lucky to end up at the Elks, and that I didn't take the recommendation to go down to the Waterhole bar. The cowpuncher froze. We were instantly no longer having fun in that moment. "They told you to go in there," he asks, as if I'm some kind of...

    Drink tokens

    WARNING: Long story Part 1 I spent the last few years working for the state of Montana, mostly with rural and native schools/communities. In those few years, I've been to almost every town that has a school, and that includes most of the tiny little 100 people towns. Going to all of these...

    SIG Sauer rifle scope?

    Have a Whiskey 3, 4x12 - it's ok. Got it for around $150 a couple years ago. Build quality is fine, but it gets grumpy being dialed past 9. FoV is on the narrow side. Doesn't love the low light conditions, either. It lives in my closet as a backup scope.

    Anyone loose their Buffalo?

    If we're talkin' bison rustlin' I might advocate for shifting their career path to a more investment-oriented direction. The adults are worth a few grand a piece. Why have burgers when you can have literal cash cows?

    Montana mule deer rant

    I can't even get myself in the headspace of someone who would drive over a thousand miles just to wipe out a small herd of does. Even if numbers were amazing, why would anyone do that?? Plus, think of the expense. Those tags aren't exactly cheap, and the gas alone could get up near a thousand by...

    A brawl brewing in spokane?

    Um... Tribes get expanded hunting and fishing privileges due to treaty agreements and supreme court rulings. I don't think y'all want to go through what they did to get that stuff lol.

    A brawl brewing in spokane?

    Oh yeah, we already have this stuff in MT and the other western states, I'm not saying we don't. What I'm driving at is that we in the interior west stand a chance against it. The culture of the public at large in the interior west is much more connected and focused on wildlife and lands as part...
