Tomorrow’s the day! Rick Springfield will perform in Great Falls – I think the first time in GF since he performed at the Montana State Fair back in the 80s. Are you going tomorrow night? Here’s a classic from Rick (written, IIRC, by Sammy Hagar):

Note: I will not be attending – love Springfield, but never quite “got” concerts.

Spotted this a few days ago at the small plaza on 6th St NW near NW Bypass.

Saw this truck at the UPS Store on 10th Avenue South the other day: “To Alaska Or Bust (probably BUST)” on the back window, and on the side it reads: “The driver is loved by his sisters very much; if he needs it, PLEASE HELP HIM!”

Also referenced in the Trib story (below) is a brief write-up of Calico Rodeo, a new Western-themed retailer located on 9th Street at 8th Avenue North. As with all good businesses in the year 2010, they have a Facebook page, although the CalicoRodeo.com website doesn’t seem to be up yet. Haven’t been in yet, but will give it a look soon.

Heh…spotted at Home Depot over the weekend. Gotta get a handle on vice, after all…

Check out this list of most-watched TV shows in Great Falls from the Trib – with only one exception, it’s all KRTV and CBS!

It sure feels good to be part of the KRTV team

As noted before – this summer has been SWEET for a heat-hater like me! And check out the forecast for the next few days – highs in the mid-to-upper 60s and lows in the upper 40s. MT WX FTW!

UPDATE: it’s not going to happen here in Great Falls, but it’s possible that folks over near Glacier might see some snow tonight or tomorrow – a Winter Weather Advisory has been issued!
