The End...

 ...of 2011 that is.  We finished up our MT trip with a quick visit to Devon.  We landed at Lance and Brenda's for a delicious Christmas dinner.  Above, Roy has just finished carving the prime rib.

Thank you Shirley, for all the time spent organizing this event.  And thank you Kara and Stephanie for all your contributions. 

Thank you Brenda, for letting us take over your house!  And congratulations on that sweet little baby girl! 

 The ice was perfect on Lance and Brenda's pond.  Monte wasn't thrilled with that northern Montana breeze, so we didn't spend as much time out there as we could have.

 Ivan, Tyler and Boyd.

 Thank you Dale and Kari, for your warm hospitality.  It was a pleasure to be with you in your home again.  The boys sure enjoyed the kitties.

And that's it for 2011.  I don't feel like I'm caught up with posts.  It was a good year, brimming with activity.  But I'm moving on anyway.  After all, it is already the middle of February and fun and interesting things are happening this year too.  Time to catch up with the times!
