So Close, Yet So Far Away
Justin: I began the day with aspirations of completing my very first display case. Everything seemed to be in order for this momentous occasion. At 8:00 a.m. sharp I met Chris in the office to look over a few pieces I wanted to add to the case, one of which may or may not be General Custer's British Bulldog Revolver. After looking over the pieces, I began typing up labels for the artifacts I chose from the collection in storage. While exictedly typing, Chris informed me we are missing a key element to the success of the completion of the case (the black felt to cover up the juvenile depiction of Calvary-Indian battle). Thus, I am sad to say that the case is going to have to wait until tomorrow to be completed, because a trip to Billings has to be made to purchase said felt. I will (tentatively) have pictures of the display up on the profile section of the blog either tomorrow or Wednesday. JD

Well a big improvement on pictures... these are great. I hope you get your case done this week! Sounds like all is going well and the days are flowing the way summer days do - too fast. Take care and thanks for the pictures. love, allyson
