notes on sunday pm West Yellowstone

sunday PM 2nd Sept

we are now at Monday am with a temp of 4 deg so this will be short as we need to get on the road.

yesterday we had a really nice lunch at a coffee bar in a book shop - amazing how efficient the 2 young girls are in running the whole thing and no time lag to speak of.
we then looked around the littel town and went late pm to see the bear film at the imax cinema which was the life of a mommy bear and 2 cubs for the first 2 years of their life.
very nice documentary.
then had supper but more about that later as there may be snow according to weather report from Bon our friend in denver.
 Neill next to Yellowstone river on the way to Big Timber
 Saddles on display at C Sharp Arms co down the road from Shiloh co opposition so to speak i believe family that broke away and started a 2nd factory not nearly as good as Shiloh but still interesting
 still same showroom

 inside the factory assembling parts
 the guy Don fitting a stock front to a gun which takes a whole day shaving wood by hand bit by bit
 Neill out side the oppostion factory
 the 1947-48 chev truck
 the real deal company but we were not allowed to take photos as they have unbelieveable equipment
 the bottom flag is a prisoner of war flag the Robert flies for his 2 buddies that he flew with in Vietnam that never came back and below the typical Montana scenery that is just one valley after another that look like this

    I trust you arrived at your destination safely and are about to enjoy a peaceful nights rest.

    Sheena (my Middle Child) are planning a raid on that showroom.... it has much of what we LOVE.... saddles, weapons, out door gear.... what more could a girl want?

    hmmm.... Maybe the Horses to go under the saddles...
