Missoula, MT

We made it to Missoula, Mt-big sky country! However, there are forest fires in Idaho and some parts of Mt. and so Missoula is under a cloud of smoke--not exactly a big sky feeling. It's about 90 degrees but very low humidity and so it's comfortable. We enjoyed spending some time in Buffalo, WY--saw some of the great spots in the Big Horn Mts. yesterday. Today, we drove 520 miles which is a record for us--the trip was beautiful-saw lots of deer, antelope, mountains, rivers, big cattle ranches, etc. I kind of missed the Wall Drugstore signs-- NOT!! The KOA here is quite large, pleasant, has a nice pool, trees, etc. It's sort of like being in a motel in that it's really not a campground as you usually picture campgrounds--what am I trying to say?? Anyway, we'll spend the day tomorrow here as well--an interesting mountain town-kind of like Boulder, CO. We'll probably do some biking-they have lots of trails along the Clark Fork River. On Saturday, we hope to drive 160 miles to Cour d'lene, ID, and spend a few days there. We hope all is well with our family and friends.
