There are no copperheads in this picture, but I thought it was still pretty nice. Another shameless plug for the Pixel 6 Pro.

How can you be so sure there are no copperheads in that picture?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I hope Heupel & co. drop 100 on Pitts face.

We are wearing white pants instead of orange, because Pitt chose to wear yellow pants.

I want to believe they did this just so we couldn't wear our orange. . . what Majors was known to prefer for away games.

I can only speculate that, absent Glitch's alleged winged copperhead, the odds are good that there are not. But in the interest of safety I recommend vigilance.

I'm sure we'll lower flags to half-staff for her. Kinda pisses me off because we didn't do it for Mr. Wrestling 2 or the drummer from ZZ Top.

You truly do live in an evil barndominium lair

Ahh..my favorite place on earth from Shwabachers landing on the Snake River unless I miss my guess.

Man. So funny you say this. I’ll be in Bozeman MT in two weeks. We’ll do a couple days in Jackson WY. I’ve been looking up places to do a family pic and have settled at Schwabacher’s Landing.

Look at it at sunrise hope to catch this.

Say what you will about the country and monarchy, but it's darn impressive they've lasted this long. Maybe entirely due to Elizabeth, but most Western monarchies have completely dissolved. The Brits are the last to have one that people around the world actually know and somewhat care about. It's kinda interesting.

I'm pretty sure some Scandinavian countries have monarchs... nobody knows or cares about them. The next best well-known example would be the Saudis but they're not a Western society.

Maybe I'll will see the British royal family evaporate into irrelevancy in my lifetime... maybe they'd already be there if she hadn't lived so long.

Queen Elizabeth II surely preserved it but if you want to know why the British Royal family became beloved look no further than America and Elizabeth's father King George VI and mother Elizabeth visiting Hyde Park for 4 days in 1939 at the behest at FDR. No reigning British monarch had ever visited the US and at the time there was no love lost between the common people and the UK. FDR and King George knew that had to change with the rise of Hitler so FDR suggested that in lieu of the King visiting Canada, he visit FDR in Hyde Park, NY.

The Canadian PM also attended the event (he thought it was a good play too and was more than willing to come to the US for the state business he had with the monarchy) as did press hand picked by the FDR administration. The goal was to King George and his wife come across as regular people and to that end it worked. FDR famously served hotdogs at the event and the headlines screamed "King tries hotdog, asks for more" and spoke about how the royal couple drank beer and ate hot dogs alongside everyone else and to their credit they really did spend time with regular people, many were civil servants in FDR's government but even so.

FDR and the King and Queen got on really well. It was the beginning of "the special relationship" between the US-UK and it really helped to humanize and endear the British royal family with Americans who until that point had been cold (some downright hostile). As odd as it is to say relations between the two nations were nothing like they've been since.

At any rate, I shudder to imagine how the world would've turned out had this high stakes picnic not happened. It is a large part of why the two nations were able to trust one another so much during WWII and obviously helped with everything from the initial lend-lease push to later war efforts. Obviously, it helped a great deal that they spoke our language but the relationship that started with some letters followed by some hotdogs changed the fortunes of both nations.

Without this... Five Eyes (US-UK-CAN-NZ-AUS) surely never happens and the war goes very, very differently.

I believe that’s right.

 

[SoilVol]

correct, and, as always best to approac quickly from side or behind. grab or box their rear quarters to startle them, they will run away. same approach for bison.

if you can find a young bear, try to snuggle.

hope that helps.

If bear not friend why friend shaped?

 

[Brillovol]

Thank you, Lt. Drebin for giving us 34 more years with the Queen.

Oxbow Bend below is another reflection picture opportunity. It is just of Mt. Moran. I think Schwabacher’s Landing is better because you get all the Cathedral Group.
