Ghost Town, Virginia City, Montana
Virginia City, Montana, is frozen in time. It is a remarkably well
preserved old west Victorian gold mining town just 20 miles west of
Yellowstone National Park (90 miles by road). When the gold ran out,
there was still enough left so that homes and businesses were occupied,
but there was not enough wealth to remodel the buildings.
Ghostown of Bannack, Bannack State Park, Montana
Come walk the deserted streets of Bannack. Bannack is one of the best
preserved ghost towns in the country. Bannack State Park is a registered
historic landmark and the site of Montana’s first major gold discovery
on July 28, 1862. This strike set off a massive gold rush that swelled
Bannack’s population to over 3,000 by 1863. The park is 5,837 feet in
elevation and approximately 1,600 acres. The campgrounds have 28 sites.

Valley Of The Gods & Petroglyphs
Camping at Cadillac Ranch RV Park, Bluff Utah.
While flying the Canyons at Bluff Utah we stayed at the nice little Cadillac Ranch RV Park, a clean small campground in between two Canyons. Very nice Staff to go along with it. Will be glad to stay there again if I’m ever in the area. Lots to see in the area even from the ground, Valley of the Gods, Petroglyphs, 4 corners, are easy day trips from one location. The Petroglyphs located just outside of Bluff Utah it’s over 100 yards of rock art that spans everything from archaic to modern times. The sheer amount of art along with the time range it represents tells us that this area must have held some special significance. The Sand Island Petroglyph Panel is as easy to find as they come. It is located in the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Sand Island. The rock art found at the Sand Island Petroglyph Panel spans virtually all of the time that humans were known to inhabit the four corners area. Carbon dating of a sandal found in the general area of Sand Island Panel showed that the area was likely occupied as early as 6,500 BC and there are petroglyphs that are possibly that old on the panel. From that prehistoric time until recent times the Sand Island Petroglyph Panel was marked by every succeeding group. From the early Basket maker period through the Pueblo III period Anasazi Indians left record of their habitation of the area. In more recent times the Utes and Navajo also left records in this spot that clearly had a special meaning to them.

The Danube in Serbia: 588 Impressions
Serbia, My favorite Place on Earth. Dori and I have been going there for
10 years now for 2 months per year.The best thing about Serbia is the
People, The nicest and most welcoming people
on earth I believe. One warning, don’t believe everything the American
media says, they have there own agendas, Most Americans have never been
and thinks it’s Siberia or Syria. If you ever get the chance, go there
and see for your self.

My love for Serbian Coffee
I crave the coffee in Serbia. I don’t know if I drink more coffee then
Grapa or more Grapa then Coffee. But I can’t get enough of either. Most
Serbs drink Turkish Coffee which I dearly
love but I drink so much of it while i’m there sometime I feel like I
need a break, here is another one of my Favorite coffees in Serbia, not
to mention the great socializing that goes along with it.
Renato Grbic a True Serbian Hero
A few years back I was reading an article about a Serbian guy that
has saved 25 people who tried to comment suicide by jumping from the
Pancevo Bridge which is between the City of
Belgrade and Pancevo Serbia. While visiting Serbia this year, Belgrade
in Particular our daughters fiancee wanted to take us to have as he said
the best fish dinner on the Danube River, I said I’m ready. I started
telling him about the story I read a few years ago and he said with
excitement! That’s the place I’m taking you to. He owns a restaurant at
the base of the bridge on the Pancevo side of the bridge. I said I must
meet this guy with excitement. So after the waiter took our order of a
mixed fish Platter (Fresh Water Fish) Serbs call River fish I asked him
was the guy that saved all those people here or anywhere around. He said
that’s him setting over there at that table. Great,so here we go my
daughter and I to meet Mr. Renato Grbic, in my eyes a true Serbian hero.
We posed for pictures and talked for a while and he said his family has
been in the fishing business for over 100 years, WOW, That’s explains
why the mixed fish platter we had was so good. The best fresh water
fish I had to date. During our chat he explained how he saved them and
the number is now 28. ABC News did a story on him back in 2012, I’ll
post a link on the full story at the end but first I have to tell you
the mixed fish platter was really the best I have ever had .The fish
soup was out of this world.So if your ever in the area and get a chance,
stop in and say hello to Mr. Renato Grbic and at least try the Fish
Soup,you want regret it. If your really hungry, try the Mixed fish
platter. Tell him that you heard about him, his story and about his
wonderful restaurant from that crazy American Guy with the camera that
was there in October 2015.

months and just got back in the States. I decided to take a few photos
of some Gypsy’s doing there regular thing. Some gathering card board from the dumpsters for rebuilding there houses some gathering Fire wood for the winter etc…

from some other planet put this movie together for me in his own way,

Day Trip to Devil’s Town
Devil’s Town, one of the many wonders of the world is situated in
southernmost part of Serbia, 17 miles from the town of Kursumlija, on
the slopes of Mt Radan, which boasts a large
number of mineral and thermal springs. Due to a high concentration of
minerals, the whole area is destitute of vegetation. The land there
easily erodes and creates mischievous landscapes. Devil’s Town
apparently consists of 202 earthen figures, Six feet to 45 feet tall,
all wearing caps on the top. Actually, those are andesite plates – rocks
created in an intense volcanic eruption of millions of years ago. For
centuries, they have been pressing the soil, which gradually changed its
appearance and was transformed into figures of various odd shapes and
dimensions.
Another Great Night on Knez Mihailova,Belgrade Serbia
Enjoying the evening with Friends and Family on the Beautiful Street of Knez Mihailova, Belgrade Serbia.
A day in Belgrade Serbia on Knez Mihailova Street
After finishing my Dental Appointment my bride and I thought we would walk the 2 KM walk to the Beautiful Knez Mihailova Street it is the main pedestrian and shopping zone in Belgrade, and is protected by law as one of the oldest and most valuable landmarks of the city.
The street follows the central grid layout of the Roman city of Singidunum. During Ottoman occupation, there were gardens, drinking-fountains and mosques along the street.
Knez Mihailova is a common meeting point for Belgraders . The street has been named one of the most beautiful pedestrian zones in Eastern Europe and is a constant buzz of people and tourists. Thousands of people stroll along the street every day as it is the shortest path from Terazije to Kalemegdan park and fortress.

Beautiful Building along the way.
