Wow, what a week. What a couple of weeks, and what a couple of weeks ahead... Anyway - I was part of the circus on Tuesday. Media. Circus. Not my favorite, but I don't know if it's anyone's favorite. So here's the picture that ran on the front page of the Daily Interlake, the paper out here.

Salazar is in the position to talk with Canada to... well basically keep the mines from going in at the headwaters of this watershed, next to this International Peace Park (Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park)
