Helena, MT High 77 Low 48
We arrived at our “spot” in Helena on Father’s Day.
Our view out the front window.

Us
Jim was so looking forward to doing a whole lot of fishing. But the rains came down. And boy did they come down. We had rain every day last week and we found out that our skylight over the tub leaks. So as soon as we see sunshine and Jim isn’t out on the lake, he’ll have to get that fixed. So far the toilet is just fine.
We did have one beautiful sunset.
We had sunshine on Monday so Jim headed for the lake at 5:00 a.m. (Why can’t I get him to get up early when I want to get on the road?) Caught a bunch of little walleyes but nothing big enough for him to keep. He’s out there trying again today.
Eight keepers.
On Tuesday our son, Todd, and his beautiful bride, Michaela, celebrated their second wedding anniversary. On Sunday they took a drive up Beartooth Highway which is one of the most beautiful drives in the United States.
Since we are settled for the next two months and I won’t be doing much, I may not be posting very often. I’ll be keeping up through all your blogs and if anything exciting happens here, I’ll do a post.
Ed's really looking forward to going fishing with Jim!!
ReplyDeleteWe've finally had a long dry spell (2 days in a row). Glad to see you made it OK.
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it back safely and with the heat and humidity here, I wish I was there with you - especially for fried walleye
ReplyDeleteYou all certainly have a beautiful view!!!! Looks like there is some good fishing too!!! Enjoy!!!!
ReplyDeleteThere are only two reasons to get up before 5 am, Fishing or golf.
ReplyDeleteBut there's no snow around your TT......? It didn't take long for Jim to get the other boat out and running..... Nice looking fish fry.....
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to the cute couple. Tell Jm he has got to catch lots of fish so we can have a fish fry.
ReplyDeleteThat's a big fish for that bird! And some beauties caught by Jim - Nice! It will be good to be settled for a while in such a pretty location, and of course, near good fishing for Jim. :)
ReplyDeletePS - Todd and Michaela are darling - Happy 2nd Anniversary to them. Oh, to be so young again. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have a good open spot. Hope you enjoy your Montana time.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it's been 2 years since you were writing about Todd & Michaela getting married! Montana sure looks like a beautiful place to be right now.
ReplyDeleteWe have to get back there. That town has so much to see we missed seeing.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah nothing quite like fresh Walleye, relax and have fun.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you're settled into a nice spot and the temperature looks very nice. It's soooo hot here and I'm longing for some cooler temperatures. Enjoy your summer.
ReplyDeleteenjoy your stay and a very happy anniversary to your son and his beautiful wife!!!
ReplyDeleteTraveling is great, but it's also nice to be settled in for a while.
ReplyDeleteLook at the size of the fish that Osprey caught. I have a video of an Osprey catching a huge fish--I posted it once because it so amazed me. It's on my side bar.
ReplyDeleteLooks from the pile of fish that Jim did pretty good. Glad the rain stopped so he can go, again. Rich and I drove the Beartooth a number of times. Never got tired of it.
How are you enjoying the trailer? I didn't realize it had a slide. Mine doesn't, but it looks to be about the same size You are so lucky that Jim is so handy. My fix would be a bucket. LOL
Enjoy sitting still for a while. Love to S&S.
Three years! Wow. Time flies when you're having fun.
ReplyDeleteI remember Todd and Michaela's wedding last year. What a gorgeous couple!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time fishing and with family.
Rain leaking in is not exciting? Oh, wait. You did post that. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so behind in my blogging! I'll be bak at it next week. Congrats to your son and his wife. LOVE the Osprey photos!
ReplyDeleteMontana here we come, eventually.
ReplyDeleteWonderful views! Have a nice time!
ReplyDeleteWe're getting rain in Colorado too, but it keeps it from getting too hot anyway. Those are some good looking fish.
ReplyDeleteFish for dinner sounds mighty tasty to me! Love the eagle with the fish he caught! Great photo Sandie!
ReplyDeleteRelax and enjoy time with family......
What a beautiful area! I am jealous.
ReplyDeleteYou couldn't have picked a nicer place to settle in. Hope there are some fish left by the time you and Jim leave... ;c)
ReplyDeleteNice. Yes, that Beartooth drive is awesome. We extended here at Coarsegold til the 15th so I won't be posting all that much either. It is still so HOT! Send us some of that rain!
ReplyDeleteWell? you certainly know how to pick a place for the summer. gorgeous. you do remember how much I loved Montana... see ya on Facebook ;)
ReplyDeleteJust had fresh lake Erie Walleye, but luckily someone else got up early to catch them:)
ReplyDeleteWhat is that you are parked on, a piece of property you own or do you rent?
ReplyDeleteI'm so far behind on reading posts due to my little trip to the lake. Looks like you have a great spot to perch. Hope you got your leak fixed.
