The tens of thousands of people who move to the Rockies do not have an appreciation of these events and that they happened only a little over 100 years ago. Child's picture make it all come alive.

So now when something goes horribly awry, equivalent to the shattering of 431 of 432 (I think were the numbers) bottles of superior wine ... it's now referred to as "a Mollydooker" or "%*&%@!#, I've been Mollydookered!!" or "So-and-so Mollydookered it up!"<br /><br />Suzy :)Suzynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940175.post-73095735950500576342011-06-25T17:19:28.394-04:002011-06-25T17:19:28.394-04:00thanks for sharing your experience.

I startled a red-headed woodpecker yesterday when I pulled up to my mail box. He was on the tree next to the box banging away on some bugs. My car is a hybrid, so is pretty quiet, but when I opened the box, the noise startled him. He turned around to find me not 5 feet from him, squawked, and flew up to the next tree. He looked at me as if he thought I had appeared out of thin air! Pretty red head, and great to see him so closely.<br />AbigailAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940175.post-45493980512750915122011-05-06T22:35:47.371-04:002011-05-06T22:35:47.371-04:00You are absolutely right my friend.

I was beyond impressed with them as they dealt with unthinkable scenarios and remained so stoick. People are always saying "God bless the USA". I think we should start saying "God help the USA".Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06894059709859110303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940175.post-28892031115324418772011-02-19T11:53:56.424-05:002011-02-19T11:53:56.424-05:00Oooh, Bill makes a good point!
