My friend Ray was reading this blog and say the entry for Duke. It seems Ray and his spouse have a Bassett Hound / German Shepard mix like duke. His name is 'Munchkin'. The boxers name is 'Sir Ramsey Jones G.' Would be cool to see a picture of 'Munchkin' standing up! Thats when those Bassett Hound legs really stand out. Thx Ray.

ICBM Silo - Somewhere in Montana

2005-08-25T07:36:00.000-06:00

Warning! Do not approach these sites. View them from public roads. If you are driving in Montana and you are in the middle of nowhere and see a chain linked fence with barbed wire on the top surrounding a 1/2 acre piece of land you can be pretty sure it is an ICBM silo. Other give aways are the 12 foot white "pole" which I have read is for security. Also, they all have an electrical pole with two transformers on them. To learn more you can visit the Minuteman Missle National Historic Site in South Dakota or just go to their website.

Rory and the Union tunnel at the Battle of the Crater Peterburg Virginia

2005-05-23T15:36:00.000-06:00

Entrance to the "Crater" tunnel dug by the Union underneath the South's fortifications in Petersburg. The battle was reenacted in the movie "Cold Mountain". There used to be a speaker in the tunnel and you could press a button and the narration would come from inside the tunnel. One day when Me and Rory where walking the park he went to the entrance for a sniff. I couldn't resist the opportunity to press the button and watch him run from there at light speed! Sorry Ror' dog.

2005-04-11T16:18:00.000-06:00

Again Abby pretending to be a water dog. Funny thing happened *after* this walk along Warm Springs Creek in the Elkhorns. I go to the local Chinese Food restaurant and get the following in my fortune cookie. "You will be spending time outdoors, in the moutains, near water". Maybe I should play the 'Lucky Numbers' it gave me.

Trip back to Viriginia and North Carolina

2004-11-08T14:49:00.000-07:00

Went back to Richmond Virginia for 2 weeks. During which time spent about 5 days in and around Asheville North Carolina. Had my fill of Krispy Kreme donuts and Carolina style bbq at Kings BBQ in Petersburg and Bill BBQ in Richmond. Strangely enough you can't find decent bbq in Montana.
