I didn't realize until too late that yesterday was National Coffee Day. Luckily, though, I celebrate that pretty much every day ...

So Charlie the Dog and I did a long hike on Tuesday.
So Charlie the Dog and I did a long hike on Tuesday. Charlie was in the lead as always, and at one point I saw him stopped on the trail, intently staring off to the left ... and then he skittered away nervously. Turns out he'd nearly walked into a couple of moose! They snorted at us a little bit, and one of them made a half-hearted move on the dog, but eventually they decided we weren't the trouble. Of course, Charlie felt like a Mighty Hunter afterwards.
When I was a kid, I'd ride in my grandparents' old Jeep on the long drive up to their summer cabin in the mountains.
When I was a kid, I'd ride in my grandparents' old Jeep on the long drive up to their summer cabin in the mountains. We'd always stop for ice cream at a little place in Evanston, Wyoming called the Dew Drop Inn. I always asked for a Black Raspberry milkshake, because the flavor sounded so exotic ... and they tasted wonderful. This afternoon I finished up a long, hot day of fieldwork outside of Red Lodge, Montana, and I decided to celebrate with a milkshake at the little drive inn there. They had black raspberry, and it was almost as good as I remembered.
Off to the Beartooth Mountains for a couple more days of fieldwork ... getting paid to hike again. :)

Playing around with ifttt this morning ... it's utterly brilliant, but I'm still not sure I can figure out a practical use for it. http://www.ifttt.com

Finally added some more photos to this album ... these are from a night spent at the old Hornet Lookout cabin, just to the west of Glacier National Park.
It looks like Diaspora is finally sending out large numbers of invitations
It looks like Diaspora is finally sending out large numbers of invitations ... as if FB and G+ weren't enough. I signed up, although D* is the very definition of "lost cause." Very nice UI -- too bad there's no one to share it with! (If anyone wants an invite, let me know.)
