Moose Monday - Bull Moose in the Backyard - Red Lodge, Montana Weren't the inflatable giant flying moose interesting last night at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremonies? A big round of applause to all the athletes of the word that participated and made these games a success. It was nice to see them relaxed and enjoying the closing ceremonies with most of them wearing foam moose antlers. After weeks of posting objects depicting moose on Moose Monday, it is time to post the real thing! In the following photo is a bull moose that was camera shy but I managed to capture a photo of … (36 comments)
Anyone feeling in the mood for some disco dancing? I went through the parking lot and across the street to my favorite wine and speciality food store: Babcock & Miles (www.babcockandmiles.com). It was snowing and it added a sense of magic to the evening.
Not only did they have a master chef at the store which was dishing … (23 comments)

It will take place on December 4 and 5 (for more info about the Stroll, visit: www.redlodge.com/stroll/).

Sunset Photos from Absarokee, Montana a.k.a Big Sky Country The following photos were taken in Absarokee (about 30 miles northwest of Red Lodge, Montana) on Thanksgiving day.

This first photo includes the moon (top left of photo).
Here is a panoramic photo (taken a couple of minutes before) so that you can get a better sense of the beautiful landscape and sunset sky.

The sun took a little longer to makes it appearance but I was in no hurry. I stood there and waited to see what other surprise Mother Nature had in store that morning. A few moments later, I was rewarded for my patience and was able to capture this beautiful view of the sun peaking over the fog curtain (the fog completely disappeared a few hours later and it … (23 comments)
Here is a Bull Moose which I photographed in Red Lodge, Montana in October 2008. He was in a hurry but I am glad I was quick enough to snap the photo of him above. This photo was cropped to get the picture for the new group on ActiveRain: Moose Monday. Isn't he a good looking bull moose from Red Lodge?

The following photo was taken in Red Lodge on the night of August 27, 2009. There are not too many lights as you can see in the mountains in the background.

- 08/24/09 04:20 AM
This the fourth installment of Moose Monday and I had to dig this one from the winter files. Before you get too much of chilling effect seeing snow in August, let me assure you that the following photo was taken on February 14, 2009. It was taken by my friend Marisa of Southern California in one of her many visits to Red Lodge in 2009. She first visited Red Lodge in 2008 and like most visitors who discover Red Lodge, once you visit Red Lodge, you will likely come back again and again. Her parents liked it so much they actually … (16 comments)

Happy Moose Monday from Red Lodge, Montana! This is the follow-up post from last week's: Moose Monday - Bull Moose on the Run in Red Lodge The following photo will give you a better idea of the size of the Bull Moose. Just remember they are wild animals and you can hopefully tell from the photo why it is recommended to not get too near any of them. I captured the photo with the zoom feature of my digital camera.

Bull Moose on the Run in Red Lodge The following is the first photo of a bull moose to make it into my Moose Monday from Montana. I took this photo in October 2008. This bull moose was caught running in the Grizzly Peak Mountain Homes subdivision, in beautiful Red Lodge, Montana. I think he was camera shy. In the background is Mount Maurice. Next week, I will share a more close-up photo of this bull moose.

Red Lodge By Night Here are photos I took the night of August 6, 2009. As I was leaving the office, I noticed the amazing display of colors in the sky. This was the call to make a detour om my way home to drive on Highway 308 towards Bearcreek and take the following sunset photo from the overlook before it got any darker. It was a memorable sunset and I enjoyed every minute of it. I will let the photos do the rest of the talking.

Moose in Red Lodge This is probably one of the best moose pictures taken in Red Lodge that I have and it is not me who took it! It was my brother and my nieces who got to admire this scene during their first visit to Red Lodge while on a little hike. My younger niece Karine was the one who pointed the moose to my brother and he was lucky enough to capture this scene from a distance and from high up (a safe zone to be) looking over the West Fork of Rock Creek just South of Red Lodge. … (32 comments)

Hiking is one of the activities that I always enjoy. It's good exercise, it does not hurt the pocket book and there are plenty of good sightseeing along the way if you pay attention to the details. As a former actuary, I know I have a great eye for detail (too many of analysis and number crunching if you ask me). On my latest hiking trip on the Red Lodge Creek hiking trail in Luther (15 miles northwest of Red Lodge), I decided to bring my camera and share some of the beautiful things I encountered along the way.
