On Thursday we decided to drive the Beartooth Highway. It was, as usual, incredible. This road from Cooke City to Red Lodge is considered the most scenic in the U.S. by many people. I think the only way to describe it is through the pictures.
As I said, this is one of the most beautiful roads I have ever been on. We had lunch in Red Lodge, then drove back, so the pictures were from both up and down.
On Thursday we drove to the KOA in Butte. Nice enough spot for an overnight, but it had some road noise like many highway campgrounds. The site was nice and long though. We drove into Jim and Mary’s Campground in Missoula tonight, and it is a lovely place. Amazingly it is both lovely and quiet! Our site is long and level, and there are flowers everywhere.
I guess the picture isn’t very good since you can’t see the flowers growing in profusion by the picket fence panel.
We did get by a quilt store today to get some material for my next project, an appliqué of birch trees on a background of blue sky and stars. Oh, and I even got my new shingles shot when we went grocery shopping! Tomorrow will be sightseeing.
