We went to the C. M. Russell Museum this morning and it was just wonderful! Magnificent Western art by a number of artists but mostly about Russell. There were Indian costumes, headdresses, displays of buffalo and original letters that Russell wrote over the years with illustrations on the pages. Awesome and a morning well spent.
We were driving along the river and saw this historical marker. If you click on the picture the words will be large enough to rea
d but I'll tell you it is a story by Lewis about an eagle who built her nest on an island in the middle of the river making it safe from predators. He was impressed by that and so am I.
Here is the island where the Eagle built her nest. Pretty smart Eagle!
We moved to a new RV park this afternoon. It turned out that there were just too many downs to the military site! No showers, no wi-fi, no TV and barely cell service and worst of all the 30 amp service wasn't enough to power the air conditioners and it is 95 degrees. When Bill went to the pharmacy he learned that his prescriptions won't be ready till Monday so we just didn't want to deal with all that so long. We called another park and they said we could have a spot till Tuesday! Great!! We packed up and came right over. Turns out that they may have made a mistake. The Fair starts tomorrow and they aren't sure we can still have a spot after tonight. We took it anyway and figured we could always go back to the base if we need to. In the meantime, we are happy with all the amenities here! Tomorrow we will go to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center and find out what that means. My friend Sandy told us that the interpretive centers are great so we will see for ourselves tomorrow (thanks, Sandy!)
I'll tell you all about it tomorrow unless we are back on base in which case you will have to wait till we can find a wi-fi spot or until we move on. We miss you and love you!
