However, good news - BGCmeowrrr joined Club82 yesterday. In other words, all her collectibles sets are now filled. Yeah!!
EchoPoint is fantastic! It is a "member" page that was set up so that we could leave msgs there for all to see. You can either go there each time to check msgs, or if you "Friend Request" EchoPoint, you'll be accepted & you will see msgs btwn EP & other CFs come across your "dashboard" (main profile page). Also, if you want a lot of CFs to see a msg without sending it over & over to each one, nor having it "Echo" repeatedly over your CFs dashboards, posting a msg. there is the best way to do it. Those are the reasons it was created (see EchoPoint's profile) in the 1st place. I often use it to announce info that I think a lot of CFs will find useful - like a pet-related site, a site that has a recipe to get rid of pet urine & skunk odors, - explanation of one of my uploaded pics, any severe storms or family med. situations which might take me away from ICHC for several days, or otherwise cause some concern for some of my CFs. We've used it a lot to announce things like that someone is ok after a tornado, wildfire, flooding, winter storm, etc. OK, here is the link: http://cheezburger.com/EchoPoint
Dunno what EchoPoint is. Like Western landscape pics, my hubby does lots. Haven't been on Cheez site for a while, kinda lost.

BTW I am debating abt. loading the scenic & wildlife pics because I would like to put the best up for Cheezfriends to see & use, but I don't want someone to copy them & submit them somewhere else - whether online, in a contest, or for sale. There are so many nice features on this site, but I wish that there was a third option when uploading pics so that only Cheezfriends could see and maybe use your pics - not just anyone who visits this site.
I got to drive through a bit of your state in March. I flew out to Bozeman, MT from Roanoke, VA (the nearest major airport ot us) then our younger son, d-i-l, 2 yr grandson, & new g'son picked me up & drove me back to their home in Gardiner for a nice visit & a chance to help out w. toddler & newborn & w. household chores. Of course, I got quite a bit of grandson cuddling done also. They lent me the use of my d-i-l's Subaru & I drove from Gardiner to Bozeman & down through Idaho to West Yellowstone & on to south of Jackson, WY where our older son, d-i-l (expecting in Nov) & toddler granddaughter live. On the trip down, I was snowed out w. passes closed & had to spend the night in Bozeman before driving down the next day. On the return trip, on the advice of our sons, I went the more western route through Idaho, took 87 & 287 through Ennis & on to Three Forks Junction before heading east to Bozeman, the Comfort Inn again, & out on a very early flight the next morn. I have always enjoyed the outdoors, wildlife, & driving, so even the time between the families was well spent. I took lots of pics w. a "new" used Canon & they turned out very well. I stopped at several places in Idaho inc. stores & a quilt shop in Driggs. I found everyone there very friendly & helpful & look forward to making a similar trip in the future. Our WY branch shops in Idaho Falls, but I didn't want to deviate that much from my main trip.
Hello, IdahoLady! Glad to meet you. We were just out to southwestern Montana in Nov. to visit kids. Both sons & their families just finished a vacation & in-law reunion on the OR & WA coast . Said they spent the first night on the way back in Ellenboro, OR, then younger son's family stayed with older son's family before driving on to their home just above Yellowstone, arriving abt. an hour ago. We went through Idaho in '86 when we drove on a camping trip to the Pacific Coast, up to Alaska & back. I remember that we woke up to snow on 4th of July in the Sawtooths, & on the way back there was a beautiful, peaceful State Park with a small lake in which you could swim. Other great memories of course.
