The Annual July Trip to Montana

This is a picture of the main street of Phillipsburg, Montana, an old mining town that's several miles from Interstate 90 between Drummond and Anaconda.  There is a great ice cream parlor on one side of the street and a store that sells sapphires on the other side.  This picture was taken looking to the west.

Between Phillipsburg and Anaconda is the Georgetown Lake, a high mountain lake that's a paradise during the summer months.

And here I am once again, getting older by the minute, wearing the same shirt I've worn to the Big Sky Practical Shooting Club's annual match.  There's not a lot to report from the match itself.  I used the same Colt .38 Super as in previous years, but just managed to finish three of the five stages due to an ongoing illness.  It was a victory just to be there under the circumstances.

I look forward to this match to see friends from Montana, in particular Paul Miner who is the head of the local club.
