Hot !!

It is the dog days of summer and it's hot! It didn't cool off here the air conditioner is running, it is storming with lightning, thunder and rain. I have been knocked off line and the sun has gone away. The cool breeze that we usually get is non existent. I drove to Helena to get some cipro, I have a bladder infection. That is so much fun to get when it is hot.
Travel plans:
Alaska 5 Sept to 24 Sept
Oklahoma 28 Sept to October 12

It won't give me much time home, but it will be EXITING!!!

Oklahoma I've been to it is a pretty state in a Oklahoma way. It is flat, dry and buggy. I love bugs, so that is not a problem for me.

Alaska, now that is different. I have never been there, not for the want of going, but because it has always been put on the back burner. I've been told that it is an experience that one has to experience to appreciate. Travel logs and pictures don't do it justice, I'm told. Until they invent smell-a-vision I agree. To experience anywhere it must be breathed in. I've been promised that I will experience fishing on a body of water that sees few people. NOW that will be an experience, to not have many people is unusual. Shrimping is promised, fresh sea food and spectacular vistas. I am fairly well traveled and have see a lot, so I am anticipating an experience to dwarf all others. I will be taking my camera and will have enormous files of pictures if it a spectacular as promised. You will all have to visit my Facebook to see how it impresses me.
Oh, I've been promised cold. I guess that is Alaska in September. I will need to update my cold wardrobe. I don't wear a coat here in Montana most of the time, I do have one but don't wear it often. Footwear, I guess my tennie runners will not be sufficient I will have to invest in warmer footwear. I am already spending money in my mind. This is going to be one expensive shopping trip. Then I will come home and go to Oklahoma were the temperatures in October although chilly are above freezing. I have to pack two suitcases.
I have to go work this out. Later
