Great Falls, Montana

We are in Great Falls with two of the three other couples traveling to Alaska with us - getting our "land legs" back after the long drive up here! We plan to leave for Canada on Saturday morning.

We played golf yesterday and saw this eagles nest on the 6th hole. The offspring are almost big enough to fly away!

I read the Canadian website about what we could bring into Canada before we left Houston and stocked my refrigerator accordingly. When we arrived here we heard that recently the Canadian government has disallowed any chicken or eggs from crossing the border. They are afraid of the bird flu entering their country! So the six of us are trying to eat up all the chicken in our freezers! We invited everyone for French toast this morning and used up my eggs! Ann and I are cooking Herbert's chickens tonight - 2 each! They are special boned, stuffed chickens we buy at this Cajun place in Houston - yum! Not giving them away! Plan on chicken salad for lunch tomorrow and chicken casserole for dinner!

I got a good chuckle out of this comment on Facebook: "My mind says chocolate and wine but my jeans say "For the love of God woman, eat a salad!"
