Title: Going away for a week, Montana bound
Post by: RAGIII on October 21, 2015, 08:58:39 AM

I am leaving for Montana in the morning tomorrow. I will be visiting the latest addition to my family, Brody Geisler, my 2 month old grandson  ;D I won't have access to a computer so don't be surprised if you don't hear from me. Looking forward to seeing what has transpired when I come back next week.

Have fun with the family. When your country is the size of a continent and members of the family are scattered over it, you need to make the most of opportunities to visit.

Yeah, Rick.  As hard as it is to believe, they do have the internet in Montana.  At least in Billings.

Thanks Amigo  ;D I was laughing pretty hard at your response and a couple that followed  8) The real reason I thought I would be out of touch was that I was under the impression they did all of their Net stuff from their Phones.... so the Tablet was an unexpected bonus. ( By the way, I still carry a flip phone)  :-[ It was a great trip, the Grandson, Brody, is a cute little fellow and it was great meeting the daughter in Law for the first time. I managed to visit a couple of Hobby shops and got some needed supplies. Also saw a Dragon Fokker Triplane on the shelf for $34.00, No MvR bust though  >:(

Yeah, Rick.  Let's see some photos.

By the way, Lance, before I became acquainted with you, I had no idea that the area north of Montana was populated.  I knew there were people in Ontario and British Columbia, but I thought all that stuff in between was unexplored wilderness.  A Taco Bell, you say?  Huh.
Cheers,
Bud

Yes, photos please....

Cheers from NYC.

PS Wake up, Bud. The fact is that nothing much West of NYC and the Hudson River is populated. It's a well documented fact.

 Bud,
    Don't fell badly, most Canadians don't know were here either, their concept is very similar to Michaels New Yorker cover; Toronto and then the Pacific ocean being next on the map! ::)

Rick,

well late as usual to this thread, but Congratulations on the Grandson !!!  So join the club, my granddaughter is now 14 months old so we have been adding to Jet Blue's income with trips (2.5 hrs) from here to Seattle. Yours is a bit farther.
Again Congrats !!!

Yep, that's the good ol' New York ego that we all know! ::)  Astronomers have discovered recently that the Sun actually revolves around New York City. Michael told me this so it must be true!

Adorable, Rick!  Brody, that is.  Not that you're not adorable in your own right, but this is all about the child, right?

Thanks for all of the comments guys! Bo, the dogs Name is Murphy, known as The Murph. The photo was taken about 15 minutes after I arrived at  my Sons house. It took The Murph about 5 minutes to become my new best friend! He is great with Brody!
