Red Lodge, Montana
It is an American tradition to travel about the country on vacations spanning from a few days to a few months. A few examples of popular locations traveled by millions of tourists each year include major cities, national monuments, ski resorts, theme parks, and national parks. These popular travel destinations are constantly flourishing with new and returning visitors looking to take a break and relax. In particular, the tourists traveling to national monuments, ski resorts, and national parks are most likely to encounter tourist towns. These towns are typically small and thrive on the abundant amounts of tourist activity flowing through the city every year. One such city is Red Lodge, Montana.

The residential part of this small community lies on alternative roads and goes about its daily life separated by city blocks from the busyness of the tourist areas.
With such a tourist focus, the town is planned to accommodate the industry. Parking runs along the primary road in addition to side streets allowing travelers the ability to park their vehicles, campers, or even buses and walk to all of the shops they desire to visit. The city is kept remarkably clean with litter almost nonexistent. Flowers are scattered around the city in pots outside storefronts, hanging along streetlights, and in flowerbeds located on street corners providing their sweet aroma in the cool mountain air. This same effort is maintained during the winter, as sidewalks are kept clear of snow and ice providing for the easy travel of tourists as they move from shop to shop.
The efforts to maintain a beautiful city are not however in vain. There is a constant flow of people for even on the slow days, tourists still are visible as they move about outside along the street and shopping in stores where they exchange their money for merchandise. Stores are not overcrowded, but there is always a fair amount of people thumbing through the racks and reading postcards. Like the stores, the road to is in constant as people leave the city moving on in their vacations while others enter looking to begin

Many people have different views on what Appalachia is, I grew up thinking that Appalachia meant people were dirty, poor, illiterate, inbreed and we also called them mountain people.

For years, the State of Nevada has found the Yucca Mountain project unacceptable because of the obvious logical and scientific issues that make the site itself unsafe. Additional support for their argument is that other than being far from the nuclear waste, the repository cannot really separate itself and its dangers from the environment and humans. Even though Nevada started with just being upset about the state having the political finger pointed at them to hold the whole nation’s nuclear waste but now their argument is stronger (Adams, 2010). Not only is Yucca Mountains’ size not big enough for the entire countries nuclear waste, but geologic factors could make the waste

Hawaii and Wyoming are two states often visited because of the variety of activities they offer. Even though both states appear different, they actually do have similarities. Hawaii is a tropical island with a moderately warm climate year round. Because of its climate, visitors generally enjoy outside activities. Wyoming is a landlocked state that usually has cooler climate. However, in the summer, it can rival Hawaii for heat. In Wyoming people spend a great deal of time driving around, taking pictures and exploring new “bucket list” places. Also, activities such as hiking, wagon riding, and cookouts allow people to be outside during their visit. [Thesis]: Although both Hawaii and Wyoming have similarities such as amazing
According to the essay “ Nature Through the Looking Glass”, the author believes that people should be part of nature, but most of the time people do not have real touch activity of nature. Under the strong competition society, it is not easy for a normal worker to go outside and interact with the nature. Those green plants on two sides of the city sidewalk is one of the chances for people to get touch to nature. More importantly, walking in the city sidewalks is easier than having a travel, which can satisfy most of the city people’s working requirement . Also, nature world will bring quiet life for people I always ask myself, if I can live without business area, after reading the essay “ The Forged City”. And I get a response, which is people need to get out of business activities and come back to nature even a short time in each day. Without interest relationship, people’s life will become simple and pure. Shopping malls cannot replace traditional city centers because people have large limitations in business malls. In contrast, people can observe different levels people in the society with equality ideas in traditional city centers. City sidewalks can fit for this requirement and provide a comfortable area for all of us. When children go
Cobblestone Estates is near Westbrook Park, which includes a few other activities alongside community trails that allows walking, running, or bicycling. These Estates are less than three miles from the closest school district. Also, within that three-mile radius there are several restaurants, parks, and businesses. Since I observed two families spending time together outside, I suspect that block parties and neighborhood parties, bonfires, or cookouts take place! Similarly, Winding Brooks trailer park is about four miles from the same activities and the Central DeWitt School District. Not everyone would like to live in community where everything is within a couple miles. Others enjoy the journey to their location, but the residents in each of these neighborhoods prefer things to be within a couple miles because it is comprised with their personal identity. Personal identity allows changes in life as you go on, this includes the choice of where one may
After calculating the fair value of Snowy Ridge’s assets it was necessary to test for impairment. Impairment was tested by comparing the carrying value of each asset to its fair value (see table 2). The carrying value of marketable securities as of June 30th was $4,500,000. The current fair value of marketable securities was found to be 4,565,000, a positive difference of$ 65,000. Changes in marketable securities are reported even without impairment, thus an adjustment was made (see table 3). The carrying value of the mountain division as of June 30th was $12,360,000. The current fair

In life no one knows their actual fate and the story "Miles City, Montana" gives a true picture of just that. In this story, we see two different times and events that take place. The first event is the death of a childhood friend and the second is an almost unexpected tragedy that makes a woman think back to the childhood catastrophe. Munro uses mostly dialog to help give the reader a description of the theme in her story. In "Miles City, Montana," Alice Munro discusses some realities of life: how drastically things can change, and how quickly and unexpectedly death can come.
