Today we took Bill and Debbie to the airport in Bozeman, got up at 430am to get ready and drive the 60 miles. We then returned to the house and got a quick nap.

We then went back west of Bozeman to Three Forks where they were having the annual horse run, about 150-200 horses are run down thru the main street to their new pasture, will include a couple pictures, they then have music and a general celebration. We enjoyed it.

Three Forks got its name from the headwaters of the Missouri River it is where the the three rivers come together. The three river are the Madison, Jefferson and Gallatin. These rivers were named by Lewis and Clark on their initial adventure sanctioned by Jefferson.
Madison was the Vice President and Gallatin was the secretary of Treasury at the time.
