Posted: August 20, 2019 |
|
Over this past weekend, I hosted a mini Wash U Swim Team
Reunion here at Casa Budde West.
Pictured left L-R: Don McIntosh (Middlebury, VT), Bruce
Canaga (Vienna, VA), Ted Roche (Salt Lake City UT) and
yours truly. This picture was taken on top of Fred's
Mountain. No flowers were harmed in taking this photo.
During the visit we took a number of hikes in the area,
ate some fantastic food but mostly enjoyed each other's
company. During this too short visit, a great time was
had by all.

This was a pretty impressive air show.
There is a doctor from Jackson that owns and
has restored a number of vintage airplanes.
A number of them are on display at The
Warbirds Cafe. You will occasionally see
them flying above Teton Valley but today
they were all in the air.

Highway 64 |
Posted: December 06, 2009 |
|
This is something you don't see every day.
Highway 64 was under construction for over a
year. Traffic was re-routed and St. Louis
residents had to make big compromises. As a
"thank you" to the public, folks were
allowed to visit Highway 64 on foot, bike,
stroller, skateboard, etc. the Sunday before
it was opened to traffic.

Derek Trucks |
Posted: July 18, 2008 |
|
The Derek Trucks Band performed at Grand
Targhee tonight. Derek's wife Susan Tedeschi
joined the band and took it to another
level.
Mary Lacy, a good friend from our college
days at Washington University in St. Louis,
joined me. Mary has lived in Houston, TX for
around 35 years so she is not
accustomed to, shall we say, "cooler
temperatures". As this was at night at an
elevation of 9,000 feet, we did have some of
those cooler temperatures.
At one point, I asked her if she would be
alright if I left her and went down near the
stage to take some photos. She said yes.
When I returned, she was wrapped up in some
blankets that had been loaned to her. She
was still quite cold. I suggested she
accompany me back to stage front where there
was a crowd of humanity generating much
heat.
She did so and was quite comfortable. She
remarked that she couldn't wait to phone her
sons to let them know their mother was "in
the mosh pit"!
