Farmer’s Market!

Friday, June 6, 2008

If it’s time for Alive @ Five, then that means that the Farmer’s Market is just around the corner, too! Got an e-mail today from Allyson (of Diamonds By Design): Don’t forget this Saturday is the start of the Farmers Market. The Market is from 7:45am to noon. There’s something for everyone whether you’re looking for fresh fruits and produce, baked goods, jams and jellies, or a unique gift from one of our many talented crafters. Feeling hungry?

Alive @ Five Pix

Wheeee! Stopped by “Alive @ Five” and had a great time! Great music, saw some friends, and (duh) enjoyed a couple of Porkies On A Stick (anyone know the recipe?). And a cheeseburger. Good turnout, too – the place was packed! (click ‘em to big ‘em!) And I plunked down $5 to get an official “Alive @ Five” hat!

Around the Great Falls ‘Sphere

Monday, June 2, 2008

GF Girl posts about the proposed start date for the coal plant, and also the recent activity – or lack thereof – of Electric City Power. Dave offers a traffic suggestion, to which I add: how about a left-turn light at 23rd Street & 10th Ave South? He also tells us about an odd theft. Great Falls Scanner offers up some humorous tips for dealing with “tailgaters.” Newly-promoted Shannon attended the Obama rally with some friends, and received some VIP treatment. Why? She offers one possible reason. And while Todd and Kelly celebrate the graduation of one son, they...

Dem Rallies in Great Falls

Friday, May 30, 2008

I don’t know how many supporters the Obama team expected to attend this evening’s rally at the Four Seasons Arena, but I bet they were hoping for more than 2,400. Frankly, I expected to read that more people showed up, too. And on the other side of the Dem divide, former President Bill Clinton will be in Great Falls on Sunday, appearing at 3:45 at the Paris Gibson Education Center. If anyone attended the Obama rally, or plans to see Clinton, and wants to share their experience, drop a comment here. UPDATE: some video and pictures of the Obama...

We Remember

We Remember

Memorial Day is an occasion for us to honor those who have died while serving in the United States military, and while certainly not every person listed at the Montana Veterans Memorial is (a) dead, or (b) died while serving, it is nevertheless only natural to focus on such a location on this day. And if you visit the memorial today, please note: “May 26, 2008 A very special Memorial Day ceremony will be held at Montana Veterans Memorial at 2:00 pm. Please bring a chair.” (click to see full-size pix) Their service in the name of America shall...
