Gentelmen,
I have a weird idea, what if we purchased land in more than one location, or
have it donated, or lease from the BLM or Forest service?

Ole #718,
Why don't you consider using some of the historic ground like I spread the
Clark Bottom Camp on?

Friends,
(A thousand pardons if you already received this message)
Yep, here we go again. I'm in another one. This one is on PBS and it's
called "The Bicycle Corps: America's Black Army on Wheels." It deals with
the Army experiment to mobilize the Army with bicycles in 1897. Don't
laugh. Bikes were the cutting edge of transportation technology in the
1890s. Once again the Army chose Buffalo Soldiers to conduct the exercise.
Soldiers from the black 25th Infantry, along with a junior officer, a
newspaper reporter/photographer, and a bike mechanic rode bicycles loaded
with their gear from their headquarters at Fort Missoula, Montana to St.
Louis in 41 days (1,900 miles). The experiment was a success, but the Army
never pursued the program further.
The show was produced by Montana Public Television (KUFM-TV Missoula) and
my parts, which were "talking head" segments, were shot at the Historical
Museum at Fort Missoula in Missoula, MT (right near where the fires are
now). It will air nationwide on Sept. 4 in most markets. In the Central
time zone it airs at 8 PM, after Antiques Road Show. Check local listings
for your airtimes.
The program's producer, Gus Chambers won a Rocky Mountain Regional Emmy
award for historical documentaries, and a Montana state award for Best
Non-Commercial Television program of the year. I haven't seen it yet, so I
can't say how I did. I guess we'll all find out together. :-)
Cheers,
HBC

Mike. Well, I'm glad somebody on this list followed the trail and commented
on Miller's magnificent art work. Don't you just wonder what was really
going on that day. Old Alfred Jacob Miller, proper Baltimore artiste that he
was, just may have just broken out into a sweat.
Mr. Moore, you get the A+ in art history today.

I haven't been following this topic very closely. Have any of you been able
to find a source for Miller's original drawings ? I have been able to see
some of them in museums and there are very interesting. There are things in
the drawings that don't show up in his paintings which were done after he
returned to civilization.

Larry,
Another place to view some of his works are the Denver Art Musuem
(in fact seen one today) and the Denver Public Library. Don't know
if the ones I saw at the library were on loan from the museum or not,
but it was possible since they are next to each other. Yes, they like
alot of paintings seem to loose alot of details when reproduced. A shame.
Oh yah, thanks Laura for such a high grade..

Now for those of you
that don't know, there is no diference between a Griz and an Alaskan Brown
Bear. A lot of enviromentalist's will tell that the Grizley is endangered
well it's not, they are like rabbits in Alaska.
*****They're doing right fine in this part of Wyoming too. In fact, there
are so many in the WIndrivers and Absarokas that a game and fish employee
told us they are about over populate to a major degree. I know it's getting
kind of scary to go camping on horseback with a soft side tent. Hunting is
getting a tad bit nervewracking too, especially with a bow or black powder.
They just don't stop that easy. Of course it isn't all Griz, the
Yellowstone wolves are around too. Oh, that's right I forgot, grizzlies
don't eat meat and there has never been a documented attack of wolves on a
human. (Yeah, right!)

Klahowya My Friends,
It is my understanding that Miller's original pieces went to Scotland =
with Stewart when he went home. And the works Miller sold here were =
painted later from memory and sketches. Does anyone know the =
whereabouts or conditions of the works that went to Scotland, and have =
they ever been made available in print? IMHO these would be the first =
hand resources to look at, not the stuff done later from memory.
