It was a bit foggy this morning and I had a little extra time on my way to work so I stopped along the Missouri River and took a few photographs.  This is my favorite. - Todd

Texas Wildflowers in Montana

Earlier this year Kelly went to Texas for work and brought me back a bag of Texas Wildflower seeds. This spring I scattered the seeds next to the front walk and several different flowers have popped up.  Here are pictures of three of them. - Todd

America the Beautiful...enough said. - Todd

Warplane Commemorative Weekend

This weekend the Great Falls International Airport is hosting a Warplane Commemorative Weekend.  During the weekend, several World War II aircraft are in town to commemorate the use of the airport during World War II to ferry aircraft to the Russian front.  

This evening I took a trip up to the airport to take a look at the aircraft and, of course, I had my camera with me.  Here is a picture of a Bell P-63 Kingcobra aircraft sitting in front of a World War II era hangar at the airport.  I found it fitting to do in black and white. - Todd

Clouds Before the Storm

Just before a thunderstorm pushed through Great Falls this evening there were some very nice cloud formations.  Here is one I captured with my camera. - Todd

Morning Reflection

The clouds turn orange from the sun's reflection as it prepares to rise this morning. - Todd

Saukenauk Scout Reservation

I spend a great deal of my youth at Saukenauk Scout Reservation including four summers working on staff.  This image represents only a few of the patches in my collection and some of the years I either attended or walked for Saukenauk; each bringing back great memories. - Todd
