Sunday, April 25, 2010

Today was a rather relaxing day for us. We went into Livingston to see the model train exhibition at the old Livingston Railroad station. But, Daddy was wrong about the date. It was Saturday and we spent yesterday in Three Forks. But we did check out the town's Sacajawea Park. It's a typical town park with playground equipment for children. But, they also had about 15 horseshoe games set up for anyone to play. Daddy really liked that.
We also took a long leisurely drive to a town called Big Timber that has no traffic lights, only stop signs. So you can imagine the size of this town. On May 15they will have the 40 best professional bull riders competing on their fair grounds. We will probably go to see that. We also stopped at several of the Montana Fish and Wildlife Parks they have set up for public fishing. Some of them you can even camp there for 7 days. This is the time of year for the best fishing here. The Yellowstone River is flowing rather quickly. We were going to go all the way to Red Lodge, but it was too far away. You can only reach it this time of year by going around Yellowstone. Yellowstone ia 2.2 million acres- that's a lot to go around. Tomorrow we need to take the RV to either Billings or Great Falls to a Winnebago dealer. That is going to be a long drive. We may end up staying in that town overnight. Great Falls has a really informative museum on the Lewis and Clark exoedition. It seems that has been our favorite part of history. We have been following their route for quite a bit of this trip.
