Summer Absence

It was a summer of travel and visiting our son, Jason, his wife, Kelley, and our granddaughter, Brooke. There was some fishing and a trip to Alaska mixed in, too. This week I am in Montana speaking to at two different Christian groups and at the Madison River Lodge. Today I am at the Clydehurst Christian Camp on the Boulder River, south of Big Timber, MT. It has snowed and the mountains are beautiful, but the air is cold. A bit odd, even for MT, in early September.

I received an email this morning from Chris McCall with a great photo of three cast off stonefly shucks. Lo and behold, the lowest shuck has another insect clinging to the right side of its abdomen. Whether this was before the stonefly left the water of afterward is not known, but it is an interest shot, to say the least. Thanks Chris for sharing this quirk of nature.
