It was -3F when I got up this morning just after 5:00 a.m. By 8:00, it was -8 … almost -9F before it started warming up.<\/p>\n

Shortly before 10:00 a.m., figuring the “go to work” folks were mostly AT work, Bear and I headed to town for a few grocery items. We stopped at the dump on the way. This particular dump is situated a bit south of the southern end of Flathead Lake.<\/p>\n

As I was sitting and looking and taking photos, I was reminded of a January day in 2003 when I took photos with my very first digital camera: A Canon Digital Elph. It was 4F and I took several photos of the house and property I owned at the time and then used Canon’s “stich” software to make them a panorama photo. I use this panorama as a header on my work website ( www.beardogco.com <\/a>). I still love the result and remember with absolute clarity, snowshoeing up to the spot to take the photos, with Karl alongside. It is a good memory.<\/p>\n
