Great Falls to Gardiner MT

Had some beautiful scenery, again.  Found another good donut shop.  This is becoming a habit!!

While on the Kings Hill Scenic Highway we came across snow covered trees and some snow on the ground.  It was 36 degrees


We stopped at the Livingston Depot Center museum for some railroad history.

Drive from Browning to Great Falls MT

We took a good share of the day traveling the 130 miles from Browning to Great Falls.  We stopped at the dinosaur museum and the Lewis & Clark exhibition.   We also found an amazing Mennonite bakery in Choteau!  Of course we had to indulge!



 

  

Great Falls, MT Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center

We toured the Lewis & Clark National Park exhibition.  We also got a great view of the Missouri River.


 

 

Bynum, MT

The first stop on today's travels was at a dinosaur museum.  We didn't realize that we were in the middle of dinosaur country where they are actively digging.   This weekend they will continue working on a nest recently found.

Glacier National Park

A cool blustery day!  Too cold to get out of the car to take pictures.  The mountains are spectacular!   The driving was a little nerve wrecking for me.  Narrow roads with VERY steep drop offs.  Robert did wonderfully but I was glad to get to the end.  There was some one way road construction and a section of heavy fog.  Thank goodness for yellow lines and tail lights.  We came across some cattle on the side of the roads but no other wildlife.  After we left the park on our way home we finally saw some buffalo on one of the Indian reservations.   Made our day!
