Wildlife: More ducklings on Middle Foy's Lake! There's a family with about seven tiny Mallards.



Visit: A Tale of Two Movies

Weather: Thank you Lord! The rain started again, right after Memorial Day.

Charity Alert: The Literacy Site -- each click means a free book for somebody this week.

In The Community: The Hockaday Museum of Art starts FOUR new shows this week -- Winold Reiss: Artist for the Great Northern; Splendid Was the Trail: Photographs of the National Forests by KD Swan 1911-1947; Recent Acquisitions; Crown of the Continent: Glacier National Park Permanent Exhibition featuring photographers TJ Hileman and Herman Schnitzmeyer; Exhibits at the Hockaday
I'm taking a fast road trip this weekend to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Bozeman, Montana to gather up five more Reiss paintings in time for the grand opening on June 9.
I'm off to run a combination web-seminar and conference call at Flathead Valley Community College. This remote stuff is taking a lot of time lately!

Media Watch: CSPAN had a re-run of a conference about Media Ownership, Media Bias that was rarely on topic, but it was interesting to see journalists discuss the various ways they get it wrong. William Keller (of the NY Times) had a lame excuse about their credulity towards Bush administration claims of Iraqi WMD. He said "Everyone else was fooled too." (Your paper simply cringed before the power of the White House and didn't do its job, Keller.)
I'm reading Stephen King's On Writing -- a mixture of autobiography and opinion by somebody with a track record.
