What's the island or shoreline in the 2nd pic? I'll bet it's exclusive.

It's the western end of Long Island. Not so exclusive, but pricey nonetheless.

Was in Jersey City last August and snapped this great photo. One of my favorites for sure.

Spent the week in Bozeman, MT corrupting America's youth at MSU. Had a free morning for a drive along the Madison river




My colleague draining his new boots that he soaked in the river. An odd sort that one...

Brings back good memories of rafting that section with my Boy Scout troop. Except for getting the rafts under a barbed wire fence that some dumb***** rancher strung across the river. That's also the area where the modern day "mountain men" wanted by law enforcement gave themselves up a few years ago. Survivalists fantasy meets reality.

Montana State University - one of the places where the State of Montana prepares its children for export. Many to the "Company."

I'm pretty sure you know Larry there with the boots.

MSU is a good place to make relationships with (one day) engineers that might be willing to come to the mountains in NM. For some reason the Stanford and Northwestern grads run screaming after their visits...

Another local engineer:

Yep, having a single Starbucks in town and elk roaming the site tends to filter out certain types.
