We returned to the Lewis & Clark Center in Great Falls this morning. Enjoyed the talk on the kinds of boats they used and tried pulling a keelboat ourselves. Saw some of the five sets of falls that they portaged around then more or less followed the Missouri to Three Forks and then the Yellowstone River to just outside the national park. We stopped at Bozeman at the Museum of the Rockies. Didn’t have time to see the whole museum but we were absolutely wowed by the dinosaurs. Have you ever seen a complete real (not a cast) T-Rex skeleton? The drive into Gardiner, just north of Mammoth Hot Springs was into some nasty dark clouds and rain. Hoping for at least some decent weather in the next couple of days.
Looks chilly out there and wet too but that’s OK when you’re out for fun.
Was that snow I saw on the rail behind you? I wish I was there to stuff some down the back of your shirt! That would make my day, HA HA!
Truely, you both look quite happy, a Western turn to your smiles. Does that mean you’ve made it to the high country? I hope so, it’s nice up there.
And what a time to be up and about! All the children locked away. out of the way, along with their mewling parents.
ONWARD! Say “HI” to Yogie for me. Love ya, Kirk
Your trip sounds MARVELOUS, bad weather or not! Just to be able to take that trip of a lifetime together in retirement…………..WOW. Ideal! Absolutely……………ideal. Keep those blogs coming……..we LOVE reading them. Love you both……………..oh, you have an open invitation if you’re ever in the DC area to come on by and stay here. Hill B&B open for friends! 🙂 God bless you both in your health and safe travels……Pete and Kathy
Kirk, fortunately we have not yet encountered snow. So you can’t stuff it down our shirts yet. Pete & Kathy, we’ll show up on your doorstep one of these days, and you will have to grace us with your presence in NC at some point. Moosecruisers in general, did you take note of our choice of beer?
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
Aboard Jewel of the Seas, a favorite ship of ours, we enjoyed a foray into the history and geology of Canada’s Atlantic coast while enjoying the joys of friendships, longtime and new. Now we’re looking forward to returning to the same ship for further adventures!

I always wondered where the dinosaurs were.
