Apple iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Update
We're Gonna See Long Lines Next Friday

It looks like we're going to see the long lines in front of Apple retail stores that we've come to expect next Friday. Apple can no longer make same-day hipping claims but will have iPhone 6's and iPhone 6 Plusses available in Apple retail stores Friday, September 19. Those two data points add up to one thing: long, long lines. In addition, it will be the first time folks will be able to actually in their little paws the phones themselves to determine what they want a big iPhone or a really big iPhone. Unless a real shooting war breaks out in the Mideast next Friday, the lines in front of the Apple retail stores will be the big story.   
 
And cynics will say it was all staged. By Apple.

Snowfall: Not Only Rare, But Record-Setting

The Casper Star Tribne is reporting:
A late summer snowstorm dropped up to 20 inches of snow in parts of Wyoming.
The rare September snow on Wednesday and Thursday damaged trees and caused power outages in some areas of northern Wyoming.
While the heaviest snow fell in the Big Horn Mountains, the town of Buffalo received as much as 10 inches.
The 3 to 5 inches that fell in Cody is the earliest recorded snowfall there since 1915, when records started being kept.
The previous earliest recorded snowfall in Cody was Sept. 12, 1970.

  1. Snow on the ground on the continental divide, I 90, East of Butte MT. All the Mt range peaks got snow. According to local reports its all about a month early.
    And the very top of the Going-to-the-Sun road has been closed for several days b/c of snow and ice on the road. Also early.

    1. Thank you for taking time to write. I really appreciate it. My mother -- in her 90th decade life -- will be moving out to the Kalispell area later in the month. The move was planned some time ago; not expecting snow quite so soon.

      I have fond memories of "Going-to-the-Sun" road. I bet it's beautiful out there right now. Of course, it always is.

  2. I'd give credit to anyone moving to Montana in their 90's. Weather is supposed to be back in the mid 80's this next week. Flathead and Glacier are two of the prettiest places on earth. Blessings to your Mom and I hope she enjoys the area.

    1. I just phoned her yesterday; she seems calm, relaxed, looking forward to being back in Montana on a year-round basis. I'm glad to hear about the weather next week. Thank you.
