John made a Honey Apple Bundt Cake. He was not too happy as a few sections of the top kinda stuck to the bottom of the silicon bundt pan. The imperfection did not affect the flavour.

I took a picture of my dress with my ipad and ran the picture through the Percolator app. Quite fun.

Still pops up at beer festivals bottled under license by speciality breweries.

This is Steamboat Mountain, viewed from across the Sagebrush Sea. A Tri-Territorial Marker is situated up on top of this portion of the Continental Rim; this formation naturally challenged settlers attempting to head to Oregon or Salt Lake.

And to compliment it the Starbucks brewed coffee this morning included Sumatra (my first cup at about 8:30, early for me) and Sulawesi (my free refill), two of my favorites.
The public library book I'm finishing reading here (70 pages left) will be the 20th Donna Leon Commissario Guido Brunetti mystery that I've read, a writer and series I discovered only three months ago.
