Can It Fit?

We have been fixing up the garage. The roof was in really bad condition. After a couple of months it is done. Forgot to take pictures along the way. Part of the idea was to park one car in the garage and then be able to back out onto the grass. If it worked we would make part of it into a patio. Well, there is no way it was going to work so no garage for the car at this point.

We were driving home from Idaho this past July. We were around Brigham City and saw the most beautiful rainbow. The colors were so brilliant. I don't think I have ever seen a bright large rainbow.

The Number Mountain

Growing up in the Lost River Valley just north of Arco Idaho had a couple of unique features. Arco was the first community in the world ever to be lit by electricity generated by nuclear power on July 17, 1955, from the nearby National Reactor Testing Station. My Dad was an Health Physicist at the Site as we always called it. The other was called the number mountain. The painting of our class number was something that was planned for as soon as you became a freshman. We would talk about what area on the mountain would be the best spot to put our number "72". The number is the year we would graduate from high school. It took a couple of days to paint the number. I wish I could remember more details about the painting process.

You can see my number to the left of the 44 which was year my Mom graduated from Arco.

This last picture shows the oldest numbers that I was ever able to find "21 and 21". The "A" stands for Arco and the "B" for Butte county.
