Montana!!!!


You know you're in Montana when there's a festival like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bozeman is beautiful

Thomas is still hanging in there however he doesn't go on my walks with me anymore. We don't leave him for very long because of his needs. He's a great dog.

We ate at Montana Ale works.....great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lots of beautiful sunsets. last night there was a storm that even people who live here were concerned about. The winds were about 60 MPH with hail the size of marbles. It only last for about ten minutes but the paper is filled with damages. The guy working with Steve filed for hail damage to his car. Pretty exciting. But the weather is mostly beautiful.


O' Canada


While waiting for a tower to be delivered to Bozeman Mt, we vacationed in B.C. Canada. We read in Highways (Good Sam mag) about the Selkirk loop.
We started in Newport Washington , crossed the border near Metaline falls. (out in no where)
It was a beautiful trip. I can believe the fact that 75% of fresh water is in Canada...there was water water everywhere. The first night we stayed in Belfour.


Lake Kootenay in Nelson, BC.

When I win the lottery, this will be the house I want to live in on some lake. Fun? (near Balfour, BC)

We crossed Kootenay Lake (huge) on a free ferry..a very modern ferry at that.

We stayed near Crawford Bay the next night.
It's a Artisan community. This is a broom Co. that made the Harry Potter quidditch brooms.

It was a great vacation. We left the loop at Bonners Ferry and headed to Montana.

July in Washinton and Idaho

We're staying at Little Diamond Lake on the border of Wash/Idaho. It's great!! We hike everyday. (got lost yesterday) I swim in the afternoon. (Steve works) There's a little resort town very near that I love....Lake Diamond. We've met alot of nice people and have exchanged email addresses....hoping to see them again.
The animals love it here. Thomas seems to be doing better. We see deer and Maddie stocks them. We've been looking for the moose that are here...maybe tomorrow.
