Though I’ve visited Montana a half-dozen times this year, I annually post pictures from my August trip. This year included First People’s Buffalo Jump State Park, The Chouteau County Fair in Fort Benton, Floating the Missouri River and a one in a hundred shot of lightning beyond Bull Run Ranch in Cascade, Montana.

multiple cut and paste
Here’s another product/ability I’d like to have: Multiple cut-and-paste.
I constantly use cut and paste. On my Macbook the Command, C and V keys are shiny from use. There is a feature I have always wanted and that’s multiple cut and paste.

I could cut them in order and be able to paste them all at once or
I could cut them in any order and press command-spacebar-v and a menu will come up asking which to paste.
This has been a feature I would like to have for a few years now. Someone at Apple Computers please add that to the next OS. Just wanted to put this out there since I’ll never get around to writing a program to do it. I have a great idea for a phone app too.

I would say it’s well-designed but the process was rather piecemeal. For example; After concluding that I would make a walk-in height run area with a raised coop to resemble my own house, I began by holding a stud upright and marking what I felt would be the lowest ceiling height I’d care to walk under. For placement of the studs, I considered the available widths of Hardware Cloth, nailed them in place and then figured out what to do next… step by step, without a great deal of forethought.
