After our usual (late) start leaving Missoula, we got on the road for Big Timber, MT, in Sweetgrass County, MT. The drive from Missoula took us past the mining town of Butte, which sits close to the Continental Divide. Above the city is a 90' statute of the Virgin Mary. The drive to Bozeman took us up and over three passes, which slowed the Caboose down substantially. If we're going to continue this trailer thing, a new tow vehicle might be in order (a Duramax Diesel, perhaps???).
We're camped at Spring Creek Campground next to the Boulder River. The campground has two private trout ponds stocked with rainbow trout, and Erika is bugging me already to go fishing. Trouble is, she doesn't seem to want to eat what she catches. I'll put any fish on ice and we'll fry them up for dinner.Today's trip takes us to Billings, then South on
I-90 to Sheridan, WY, and then Buffalo, WY, where we spend the night, from there, it's on to the Black Hills of South Dakota.
