Montana!

Jun 10-19
We are now in Big Sky country! We had a great 5 days in the Butte area. We stay a few days at Fairmont Hot Springs RV Park and then moved the motorhome to Dixie's cousins in Butte. There we attended a great Graduation Party for their son. They have a lovely home on the golf course overlooking the Highland Mountains which were snow capped and beautiful. Dixie's sister and brother with family also came for the party. It was a great time seeing & visiting with family. From there we made a detour back to Missoula as Mike was "seeing stars".....literally!!!!! He found out he had "floaters" in his one eye. The report was good as they tend to go away with time - most of the time anyway. Since Mike's eyes were dilated, Dixie had to drive the motorhome to our next destination which was Seeley Lake. We are currently parked in Dixie's Aunt and Uncles yard. They have a beautiful home and yard in Seeley Lake. We have deer running by our motorhome and are nestled in the trees. We have been keeping busy - 4-wheeling (driving 50 miles in 5 hrs), fishing in the boat on Seeley lake one day and Salmon lake the next (no fish either day), and visiting relatives in Orvando. Of course we have no cell, internet or satellite service since we are in the trees. Mike & Warren tried for several days to find the satellite and finally found it after putting the tripod dish on the "roof" of the motorhome. We plan to stay in this area for this week and then move on to Glacier Park next Sunday.
