Welcome to the Shawnee Mission West Class of 1966 Website 

Mike Coleman, "What do you spend your time doing these days?"

Between Vanderbilt, Virginia and Texas I spent over 40 years on university campuses.  When we retired a decade ago the mountains of NW Montana were a logical choice for creating social distance. This means the latest changes are not much of an adjustment for us.  We live on acreage that borders national forest with the nearest town almost 25 miles away.  We have spent much of our time thinning our forest and learning to appreciate the wilderness.  The first image is looking out our back door across the valley below and Glacier National Park beyond.

While I continue to restore old Jaguars, photography has taken an increasing amount of my time.  My calendar for 2020 featured wildlife and I have included a few pictures.  The wolf and mountain lion are from Montana while the fox image was taken in Alberta and the grizzly bear from the waters north of Vancouver Island.

Best of luck to all of you.

Mike
