Some friends, the Wife and I went on a 40 mile Quad ride yesterday West of Twin Bridges MT, there is an mining district dating back to 1863, there was a town named Rochester, nothing left but some rock walls and foundations. Guess there were around 5000 hardy soles in the area, none now though that you can see anyway. Saw lots of interesting old mines and prospect holes, lots of great views, on one ridge you can see the Mountains of the Yellowstone Park and the Grand Tetons of Wy from one spot. Saw 3 Bighorn Rams, got some good pics and tried to get them on here in a slide show, but didn't get that figured out yet. Still working on it. Tomorrow we're leaving Belgrade, going to spend 1 night in Livingston and then going to Lewistown to get the Wagon out and ready for the summer.

Nice sunny day in Montana, was thinking about washing the Rig but we're on the road again Tue and Wed and guess what,RAIN, so whats the use,just get dirty again.Guess we're going over to Butte tomorrow to get some skins for the Quad,needs them bad. Going on a ride Sunday with Rose and Ron over south of Butte. While in Butte will hit the junk shops to see what we can use on the Wagon, don't need much, looking for 1 or 2 16" or 20" Dutch Ovens.

Sitting here watching it snow,got about 3" so far. Still in Belgrade, be here anoth week then head to Lewistown to get the Wagon ready for the summer. Got a few deals lined up for it, will be fun.

We,re in Belgrade now,came over yesterday. Spent 4 days in Shepherd with a couple Daughters and the Grandkids. Aunt Karrie gave Tristen (age 7) a 2 year old filly and we got her started, got about 6 rides on her in the 4 days. Tristen named her Peaches and she is going to be his rope horse. His mom and him rode her yesterday and today and got along good. Had a great time with the rest of the kids and really enjoyed them.

Well we headed north on the 28th of March,got to Gillette WY on the 30th and promptly got snowed on. Left to soon again. Going on up to Roundup MT and drop of my folks and then on to Lewistown MT for Easter then back to Billings for Amandas BD and then on to Begrade MT to see Carols family for a couple weeks.

Wow a week in the new rig and its starting to feel like home. Still moving in though, inside is about done just my stuff outside, do abit every day and it will get done, got other things to do though Quad rides, Happy Hr or 2, visiting and just run of the mill stuff.

1st night in the new rig is over, got quite a lot done yesterday,should finish moving stuff over
from the trailer today, lots of things in Wellton to load yet. Might have a sale in a couple of weeks.

Todays the day we move into the Motorhome. Have to be in Yuma for a walk through at 9 AM and the fun begins. Have most of our things in boxes and a lot stored here in Wellton so won't be to bad.Will stay in at the Dealers lot for a couple nights to make sure everything works.

Well last Friday we traded our truck and 5ver for a Class A Motorhome with 20,000 miles. Been busy packing and boxing stuff up. Will go into Yuma for a couple of days Monday and transfer and live in it before we leave the lot, that way if problem arises they will fix it right away. Kinda excited, will post some pics next week.
Been doing some 4 wheeling and GEO Caching in the desert around Wellton AZ where we are at. Went on a 7 hr ride today about a 100 mile over a lot of rocks and rough roads.

Well we are in Wellton Az tonight got in about 2 this PM.Got into snow yesterday AM in Texas go figure, driving lane was wet, passing lane still slick.
Spent 2 nights in Fort Stockton, went to the Fort and an hotel museum, then drove about 50 mile north to Pecos and looked it over and went to a museum there. Other wise a good trip.

We left Eagle Pass yesterday and pulled to Fort Stockton where we parked for 2 nights. Got up this AM and looked over the Fort and Museum also an old Hotel Museum, then drove up to Pecos to a Museum there and looked over the town. Kinda odd no Antique shops in these 2 towns. Will head out in the AM for AZ hope to get as far as Lordsburg NM tomorrow and then Wellton the next day. We'll see depends on how many stops we make.
Already missing Teresa and the kids.

Not much going on here,spending time with Teresa and giving the Kiddies a bad time,get lots of loving too.Teresa and Jay's friends from Presideo were here for a few days.
Maybe go downtown tomorrow and see if theres any thing new going on.

We took Eileen to the airport today with Teresa, long drive traffic wasn't to bad though. Seen a nice Whitetail buck on the road going over and on the way back saw a small herd of Javalinas about 20 with some little ones. Was a very nice day sunny and warm in the upper 60s.
Quite a rackett around here at midnight with all the fireworks and noise,woke Carol up I slept through it.
