Biodiversity

I can appreciate different kinds of countryside. I loved the prairie. Idaho is lovely. But I struggled with Wyoming.
I feel guilty because I know there are people who think it is the best. But what I saw was a million miles of scrub, punctuated by natural gas and oil wells.
We stopped at a rest stop called Bitter Creek, where there was a big sign explaining the wonders of "Mother Sagebrush." OK. But from now on, I'm going to let someone else appreciate it.

You guys are "making my day" everyday. I love turning on my computer and going to your family Blog site. You know this could be the makings of a great thursday night sitcom..? or a ABC Friday Night Movie of the week..? Thanks for sharing.

Hey, my dad had to walk to school up hill both ways in five feet of snow all year around.......Hmmm..I wonder?
