Montana

Winter vibes.

Made a detour on my way to work today.

Met some guys who planned a morning of ice fishing. It was 16° out, so I wished them luck.

Took a few photos of the sunrise and the mountains, got back into my Jeep, and drove to work. It was a very lovely morning.

It’s snowing. Coming from southern California where the weather was always 70° and sunny, the snow in Montana makes me happy.

Only the K-5 students are back today. I’m glad the kids can enjoy this short week with friends and in relative safety.

But we have a long winter ahead.

I love the smell after a night of deep rain. The world feels cleaner, like a shower after a long day of work.

Temperatures have hovered in the 30s for the past week, but the snow in the mountains portends a cold winter.

I hope to see everyone safely on the other side.

A very foggy morning.

Back to work but all I can think about is the future. Is it wise to get rid of everything and spend the rest of my life on the road?

Maybe one day the fog will lift and the answer will be as clear as day in front of me.

What a beautiful sunrise this morning.

Good morning!

Amazing that I shot this nine days ago, and the weather today was in the low 60s. Montana has the best (as in weirdest) weather, and I love it.

My town is weird.
