Revisiting Belgrade, MT

Monday Aug. 5th (Days 340-343)


From South Dakota we pressed on to Belgrade, MT, arriving on Thursday, August 1st. Staying with Candy and Rick always means great food....as witnessed by this breakfast Rick cooked us on Friday morning.



On Saturday, we went to a local fair, and Candy bought this little Montana onesie to send to River.



We found out via Facebook that an old friend of Tasha's from Lake Stevens was now living in Bozeman, so we met her at the fair. This is a picture of us with Breonna, whom Tasha's known since 7th grade. It was so fun to catch up on her adult life!







Sunday morning, and Candy and Judy are making cinnamon rolls with Candy's new-to-her Kitchen Aid mixer. Her 95 year old mother  in law gifted it to her when she moved. The rolls turned out great!


Harris cooked a great stir fry for dinner. See...at Candy and Rick's, it's somehow all about the food! (Oh, and cards, and baseball, and laughter....)



We left on Monday morning, made it across Montana and stopped at the casino west of Missoula, then got up early on Tuesday and finally reached home. As we approached the Cascade mountains outside of Wenatchee, we saw several forest fires in the distance.




Home again, home again....it's been a very long trip, full of great scenery, adventures and most of all, visits with people we love.

Total miles driven this trip = 8525
