Rocky Mountains,Alps, and Marshes.

Almost finished the chicken hut,it needs painting and maybe some roofing felt on the laying box cover,visited the two oldies on the caravan site,and we gave them some eggs,our first chicken to lay was named after Audrey,so it seemed only fair to take a few eggs.
The weather changed from a nice partly cloudy day with sunshine to raining, around 4pm this afternoon,it looks like an hour of Everybody loves Raymond at 5pm,and maybe a little glass of wine(Mary Sue please note),no food police here.
I like the look of the Amtrak train ,we did look at taking the train from chicago but I think it was a lengthy journey,we discounted it for some reason,Whitefish Montana seems to get the same weather as Pinerolo in the Italian Alpine foothills where a number of our friends live,thunderstorms I think caused by the mountains,and then sunshine.
Coffee morning at Le Marsh tomorrow,getting all the latest gossip,and feeling sorry for the poor farmers(I know you are reading this farmer joe).
At the bowling on tuesday Le Blade came up with the idea of a walking and camping escapade somewhere in England,Le Boffin was not entirely convinced by his arguments,my suggestion was to contact Channel 4 so they could film us and help defray the cost,"3 old chuffs soaked to the skin in a tent"as a possible title,though not feeling much pain due to alcohol induced insensibility.

I think it's a great idea, I'd watch it!

I like the idea of camping except the bit at night in a tent and not being able to shower or clean. So a nearby hotel would be needed.

Great idea on the camping escapade. Go for it! You'll start a new reality series there.

It doesn't rain much here in Whitefish. We had one day of good rain and apart from two other short instances, it has been totally dry for the three weeks we have been here.
