We just got back from our Montana trip, and what a great time we had! It took about 20 hours of driving to get there, then we went to Lewis and Clark Caverns, Cliff and Wade Lakes, Whit’s Lakes, the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center, on a boat ride, fishing on the Madison River, Johnson Lake, Hebgan Lake, and built a fence. We did a bunch of hiking, and quite a bit of fishing (Brian caught one 2-inch sucker and a Whitefish, Amanda caught stick and rock fish). No fireworks because of the high fire danger, but everything was so green and fresh and beautiful, we may just move there–3 months out of the year, that is. There are several pictures below, and more if you click here.
