Weekend Fun

Let's see, Saturday we drove about 2 miles or so up our road, parked the truck, and took Maggie and Rex for a walk. Actually, climb is a better word. Luckily, there were no bear or mountain lion sightings, but we did see a ton of elk poop!! Sunday, our friends Dick and Lisa were kind enough to let us borrow their ATV. We rode 30-something miles with our friend Tom. There was some really deep snow up in the mountains and we saw lots of tracks, but no animals. [sigh] One day I will see a moose. So today we decided to head to Discovery for a day a skiing since they got 6" of powder overnight. It was 50 and mostly sunny when we left the house. About 45 min from the house, it was in the 30s and snowing buckets!! Does "buckets" work with snow or is that only rain? Anyway, they got another 7" today and it was almost too much powder to even enjoy yourself. We had a nice surprise waiting for us when we got home. Rex (possibly with Maggie as his partner in crime) destroyed the laundry room. At least 2 rolls of paper towels were shredded, Rex's crate was pushed to the middle of the room, Maggie's bed and blanket had been pulled from her crate, and to top it all off there were potatoes everywhere!! Chris thinks they wanted to make some potato salad! Really, I was laughing too hard to be mad. Hope everyone had as much fun as we did this weekend!

Bannack State Park

Bannack is the first settlement of the Territory of Montana. It's a really neat place to walk around and actually learn some of the history of Montana. We always wind up taking our friends and family there whenever they visit. Sooooo, today made trip number 3 and I'm sure there will be more. Check it out at bannack.org if you're interested.

4-wheelin'

Bill and Carolyn were kind enough to let us borrow there ATVs for a nice drive up the mountain behind their house. Even though we couldn't make it all the way up(too much snow), the view was AMAZING!! The girls were obviously more intelligent than the guys because we wore helmets :)

Another Day at Discovery

Chris' BFF Russell and his wife Cathy are here visiting so we took them to Discovery for a day of skiing and snowboarding. We had a great time!

Let it Snow

It started snowing around lunch today and there is no signs of it stopping!

For the Guys

Does your Lowes look like this?
