Kathe, I just knew when you let us read about the hood it was going to be a lollapaloozer and you didn't dissapoint. The photos are fantastic too.

I am reminded of a high school class mate who while on the school picnic, got frightened with myself and another boy rocking the row boat we were in and peed her pants, She was known from thatmoment on as "Puddles," and now more than a half century later, she is still known to a few of us fondly as, "Puddles."

Kathy, you are a hoot. I would love to have been on the mountain snowmobiling with your family.. The hood thing is hysterical. I think I took the ride with you. Great Story!!!

Always looking for more from you.
Keep up the good work, dear friend.

I enjoy reading about all your adventures, Kathe, and this one was another great read! And the pictures, as always, are gorgeous. By the way, what is the temperature in Butte, Montana now? Just curious. :-)

Low 30s this evening but for the fifth time this season, the snow is melting on my mountain in our glorious sunny days. Cazy!! Very pleasant and I notice the global warming more and more every year. K

Another of Kathes tales; what a fun time...but a little cold it seems for my blood!

Thanks for another great account of your life Kathe!

Kathe, you are one amusing lass, and when you tell on yourself, it's even funnier! I had no idea where this story was heading, but now I realize it was "in the hood"! Thanks for the loud laughs! Keep 'em coming.
Blessings,
Sandi in FL.

Oh, Kathe, I've heard of podunks and teapots, but a pee-hood does take the prize! Only a woman with a terrific amount of self-confidence (or the hide of a rhineoceros) - or maybe just an utterly fantastic sense of humor could submit that story and put up with all the guff you are going to get. Jo

Wonderful story Kathe. Makes me wish I had a snowmobile and was able to participate in such an obviously fun event.

Kathe, what a terrific story! And as usual, you tell it so well. I love how you can laugh at yourself, all these years later. Of course I wouldn't expect anything less from you! Great job.
