Believing is Seeing- 5 Holiday Family Friendly Movies That Inspire

December 20, 2008December 10, 2019 Marlene Marlene's This and That
RMKK Companion

  As many do at this time of year with short winter days and long cold nights, my family and I watch a lot of inspirational movies. We don’t have a TV, so we gather in front of the computer to watch our favorite movies on Youtube, Hulu, or Google Video. What’s great is that […]

The Berries of the Mountain Ash

December 18, 2008April 19, 2013 Marlene Leave a comment Miscellaneous

Snow-kissed red berries of the mountain ash make for a visually stunning snowy scene in winter. The Mountain Ash tree is not an Ash but actually part of the rose family or Rosaceae. The leaves resemble Ash, hence the name. The berries are red-orange to red and have the appearance of very tiny apples. They […]

It’s Ice Fishing Time!

December 17, 2008December 17, 2014 Marlene 1 Comment Miscellaneous

I must admit the thought of drilling a hole into a frozen lake and waiting to catch a bunch of little perch didn’t appeal to me until he started coming home with some nice sized Northern Pike. Unlike perch which I think aren’t worth cleaning, the pike are large enough to fillet and make a […]

Girls

Latrine

The other day while shopping at a sporting goods store, I encountered a young couple purchasing ice auger blades. They reminded me of why boys get married and the devices they must use to achieve their desires. Upon finding his choice of mate, it is only natural for a young man to forsake all others, […]

Forty and Pregnant

December 11, 2008February 13, 2012 Marlene Marlene's This and That

If we consider our thoughts as prayers and saying them aloud as complete affirmation of our desires, we must be prepared when our prayers are answered.   When in my early 20’s, woman’s intuition told me that I would have a change of life baby, I expressed this thought to my husband. We had never […]

Jenna and Johann Otter Return To Glacier

December 8, 2008May 22, 2012 Marlene Bear Encounters, Marlene's This and That

  We were no more than 10 minutes from home visiting a bird sanctuary with our homeschool nature journal group. It was a damp, dreary, autumn day and only 4 mothers with their children had shown up. Even though close to home, it was my first time in the Sowerwine.     The group followed […]

Red Sky at Night, Sailors Delight

December 8, 2008January 6, 2015 Marlene 3 Comments Miscellaneous

  My mom has always been a fan of the natural wonders we are blessed to see. Back when we lived in Louisiana, often she would say, “I want to move out west to see the sunsets.” And so she did. Although I usually roll my eyes or tease when she gushes over sunsets, some […]

The Wind – Scenic Point Trail Video

December 7, 2008June 14, 2012 Marlene Leave a comment video

This is a 30 second video taken on August 25, 2005 on the Scenic Point Trail as referred to in my article, The Otters Return to Glacier. M was 8 years old, and E was 7. The wind was blowing from the Plains so hard that it was kind of scary thinking they would be […]

Did RMKK Make a Difference?

December 4, 2008April 19, 2013 Marlene 2 Comments Hiking

  By M Before Rocky Mountain Kids Korner went online, Glacier National Park was essentially a retired baby boomer paradise. It was unlikely to see people under 45, and even more unlikely to see a child. On the trails, we saw numerous 50+ patrons of the park, but we seldom saw young adults and kids! […]
