Days 18, 19 & 20 - Travel Days

Big Sky Montana...Here's a picture taken to the west? east? Oh it doesn't matter because the view is the same in all four directions. You can get to the middle of nowhere real fast out here. In any case, we're just traveling for a couple of days with nothing really happening for a post here. We're on our way to Glacier National Park and will make our next post from there.

Day 17 - Medora, North Dakota - The Musical

Medora is a small town (and I mean small). Can't be more than a couple hundred people and I think I'm being generous with my count. The only reason the town is here is because of the National Park. The town is famous, in this part of the country, for it's evening "Medora Musical". Our evening started with a pitchfork fondue (steaks put on a pitchfork and cooked in oil). The dinner was good but the steak was horrible. oh well, the experience! The musical show is done outside with the badlands as a back drop. It was really a very enjoyable evening of song and dance with a fireworks finish.

Day 17 - Medora, North Dakota - Badlands

The Badlands of Western North Dakota are vast. They are very similar to the badlands of South Dakota, if you've ever seen them. There are very rough valleys and bluffs as far as the eye can see. It kind of makes you think that John Wayne and the Calvary will be coming around the bend at any moment to save the day. The part that we saw is in the Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Teddy lived here for some time (We saw his actual house in the National Park) before he was president and owned a ranch here. He was very much into conservation and was responsible for many of our National Parks.

Just A Little Buster Break!

Just thought that we'd let you know that Buster is having a wonderful time on his summer trip. I'm sure you can tell how alert he is to everything that's going on around him. He never misses anything!!!
