In 1988 or 1989 I was on the last fishing trip to the Sudbury region in Ontario, Canada. On the way home we all stopped at a Trading Post themed store and I bought this. Another First Nation themed macro. There are even bison nickels riveted to the tooled leather belt. Because of an excess of girth that I'm afflicted with I can't wear this belt any longer. This buckle is around 42mm x 53mm. HMM! Thanks ahead of time for all views, faves and comments.

This impressive peak literally "jumps out" at you when seen as it essentially stands alone, proud and majestic.
"Chief Mountain (Blackfoot: Ninaistako) (9,085 feet (2,769 m)) is located in Montana on the eastern border of Glacier National Park and the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. The mountain is one of the most prominent peaks and rock formations along the Rocky Mountain Front, a 200 mi (320 km) long overthrust fault, known as the Lewis Overthrust, which extends from central Montana into southern Alberta, Canada.
The peak is easily seen from Montana and Alberta due to the rapid 5,000-foot (1,500 m) altitude gain over the Great Plains which are immediately east of the mountain." Wikipedia
Enjoy a terrific Tuesday!
Chief Mountain rises above the Kirwin Road. This ia a view looking down the Wood River Valley from north of Kirwin, This is a glacial valley in the Absaroka Volcanic Field in Shoshone National Forest, Wyoming. The smoke in the sky is thought to be from wildfires burning in Oregon and California.
Little Chief Mountain rises over St Mary’s Lake in Glacier National Park, Montana. The orange color of the conifer in the forground is due to western spruce budworm.
seen on this day last year in the little town of Squamish B.C.

1958 Pontiac Star Chief Safari wagon, a somewhat upscaled car to the Chevrolet Nomad series of station wagons.
I wish I'd spent more time on this operation but it was 30 miles away.....and SOO ran COFC right by my door in Trout Lake so I didn't do the Chief justice. This was late March 1981 as 403 and 2408 empty the Chief at St. Ignace.

Does anyone know what the round brass cylinder like object is that is behind the motor and in front of the rear tire?

Arches National Park, Moab
The word architect comes from two Greek words "chief" and "creator". When I saw these wonders, I was thinking, why wouldn't we give at least the same credit to the architect of these arches as we do to the architects of manmade wonders?

Thank you so much for your visit!
Say what you want about WalMart but they saved this 1953 sign and keep it protected. The store is on top of the old drive in. The sign is covered by plexiglass making a decent colorful image near impossible.
There is one small section along the arrows were we can see the sign per se. The Plexi is cut to fit perfectly, that's expensive.

Summit Chief Mtn, as viewed from Williams Lake. This was taken on the same long ago trip on which we climbed Mt. Daniel, and did a few short hikes from base camps. FYI - That's not our tent, as we didn't camp here. Scan of a 35mm Kodachrome 25 slide.
Alpine Lakes Wilderness, WA
Custom built Master Chief HALO minifigure.
I bought this customized armor & helmet from a local supplier in Australia, though he does not leave any info regarding who makes these. Can anyone recognize these pieces & maybe let me know who made this cast?
Anyhow, I built the rest of him, added details & painted it.

As of late I've been receiving quite a few requests for photo prints. So, with my wife's "gentle" urging, I've opened up my own little print sales shop on Etsy where this photo is one of the first I posted. If interested, you can find the direct link to this photo here:

...or to my shop homepage here:

I don't have many photos uploaded at this time (getting a little shop like this up and running is much more work than i would have thought) but I will be uploading some future photos as well as going back through my catalog to pluck out some of my "oldies but goodies"
Thanks

Early morning at Jasper, Alberta - This distinctive mountain (Called Bon Homme) appears to look like a Chief lying on his back. This was the view from my hotel bedroom.

Amtrak's Southwest Chief had just departed Fort Madison and was approaching the Mississippi River crossing on a cloudy day in 1995.
When Amtrak used equipment that matched, it looked pretty nice. Unfortunately, when Amtrak decided to go with that bland Phase V paint on their locomotives, the equipment no longer matched the power.
