The mountains of the Gallatin Valley and surrounding areas are now crowned with snow, and autumn colors are on full display. The fall foliage here is as good as, and perhaps better, than anywhere in Montana on the east side of the Rockies.
More new autumn photographs from the Gallatin Valley and Yellowstone National Park are now online here, including a new Windows Wallpaper background photo.
And here are the latest interesting entries from local police reports:
* A resident of South Black Avenue reported a bear eating trash outside his home.
* A woman reported that she was worried about her son, who she said liked to bathe in the insecticide Raid and put it in his coffee.
* A deputy found a cow that had gotten outside its fence on Churchill Road. The owner wasn't home, so the deputy led the "cooperative cow" back across the fence and out of harm's way.
* A Churchill man reported one of his long-horned bulls had wandered away. He asked anyone spotting a long-horned bull walking around Churchill to call him.
