This morning after finding a dump station to empty our tanks and get more water we found a nice little rest area on the edge of Stanley. We have our generator turned on making electricity and we are both on our computers checking mail and doing a blog post before we head out. A relatively short drive today.
We are driving on to southwest Montana today and will find another woodsy campsite for 2 or 3 days then on Livingston Mt. to full hook ups at a campground about an hour out of Yellowstone for 3 days. We will get caught up on laundry again and enjoy long showers with running water and not being conservative before heading on to Yellowstone. We will have no cell service for the next three days again most likely.
Some photos from the drive out today – going towards Stanley:
As you can see it was foggy – not real bad though:
The mountains:
The river:
Don’t know how much you can read off of this sign – it looks kind of small print to me. It tells about historic things in this area:
Pulled over at the rest area – pretty scene itsn’t it:
(I am writing this on the 29th in the morning and will schedule it to post tonight) (might not hear from me again for several days unless there is a signal after all that will be strong enough for the connection to the internet)

I have always wanted to go to Montana! Take and post lots of pics, please.
When I’m heading home for a visit, I get sooooo excited as soon as I get a peek at the Rockies. I really miss seeing mountains and the smell of pine forrests.

Karen, I remember a ghost town I think it was in the Dakotas when you were last there. I don’t think we have those here in Canada. I see barns that are left to fall down but not too many towns that must have been mining towns, you think?
Beautiful country. Montana is so vast…just seems to be you and Mike on the road most of the time.
We have friends who live in Victor, Montana. We visted them once and it is so pretty in that area which is about 45 minutes SW of Missoula. We crossed over into Idaho just a little bit and it was so pretty. Hope you have a great time crossing Montana. Watch out for bears.
That Hemingway was just everywhere, wasn’t he? And I’d sure LOVE to be in those ice caves about now instead of in hot, humid Chicago.
Is that THE Mammoth Cave, or are there more of them around the country?
