Presentation looks at peculiar attractions along Montana's highways
Plenty of Montana’s exciting history is visible from its highways, according to Jon Axline, historian for the Montana Department of Transportation.
He will recount tales of some of those places during the monthly meeting of the Northwest Montana Westerners Monday, Oct. 21, in Kalispell.
Among other subjects, Axline will delve into the history of the Bozeman Trail, the famed Smith Mine near Bearcreek, Montana’s Cold War radar stations, historically significant roads and bridges in the state, and giant grasshoppers.
He will also reveal the secrets of the stone chimney south of Havre and the concrete structure built into the hillside between Logan and Three Forks. And he will discuss the curious characters connected to historic sites.
Montana history is much more than vigilantes, the Battle of the Little Bighorn, and copper kings, he notes.
Axline is the interpretive marker coordinator for the department. In addition, he has also written and co-authored eight books on state history.
The presentation starts at 7 p.m. on the second floor of the museum, at 124 2nd Ave. East in Kalispell. Cost is $5 for the general public, with members and youths under 16 admitted free.
Where Khloe Kardashian Stands With Ex French Montana More Than 10 Years After Breakup
French Montana is done keeping up with reality TV.
In fact, he only agreed to appear on Keeping Up With The Kardashians and Kourtney & Khloé Take the Hamptons over a decade ago as a favor to then-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian.
“She said to get on the show,” he exclusively told E! News at the BET Awards on June 28. “And I got on the show. Shout out to Khloe.”
The “Ever Since U Left Me” rapper, who split with Kardashian in December 2014 after eight months of dating, said the experience was “fun” because her family kept it real.
“They filmed their real life,” he continued. “And we were part of something together that one time. So it felt great. It didn’t feel like work because they film what they do everyday.”
As for his future in reality TV, the 41-year-old said those days are over, shutting down any prospective offers with a simple, “Negative.”
Although the “Unforgettable” artist—whose real name is Karim Kharbouch—may not be returning to television anytime soon, he has no problem hanging out with his ex-girlfriend these days.
