From the city to the mountains...

This paragraph is for the East Coasters...

Today, I attended an NASW chapter meeting; my first since returning to Montana. My memories of NASW in DC include lectures at congressional buildings, meeting with state representatives, worry about Republicans taking over Congress, etc. Usually, just getting to the meetings/conferences took time. So, I was highly amused when I learned that our meeting was a quick drive down to the "Bulldog Lounge and Casino at the Outlaw Inn." I kid you not. If that's not unique to Montana, I don't know what is.

Spring seems to be here. The snow on the trails is melting, turning everything into chutes of ice. Here's a couple of pictures from my last trip to Helena.



The running is coming along. So far this week:

Sunday: 11

Monday: 3.5

Tuesday: 0

Wednesday: 6.5

I'm traveling again tomorrow. We'll see what kind of mileage I can get between meetings, driving, and the conference. Hopefully, I don't have to seek out the dreadmill.
