Cut Bank, MT

Yesterday we decided to head a bit further north and drove 130 miles to Cut Bank, MT.  We are staying at the Riverview RV Park.  It's a first-rate park, free Wi-Fi, cable with over 60 channels, freshly painted picnic tables, access to the Cut Bank River and blue ribbon views.  The park is very well maintained place owned by a man named Mike who is originally from Traverse City, MI.

On our way here, we stopped at a rest area where once again we were reminded that we are in the wild, wild, west.




The next time you use the expression "whoop it up" you'll know where it came from!



The view at the RV park is amazing!



Around 6:30 we decided to try fly fishing again.  To get down to the Cut Bank Creek, you take a path that was once old U.S. 2.  Very easy going down and not too hard going back up.


We got skunked once again, but we sure had fun trying.  And besides, the view is so beautiful.



When we got back to the RV, someone had pulled in beside us.  They are towing a car and did not take it off so we hope that they are not staying.  It was nice having an empty space between us and the people next to us.  We had a great view then and hope to have it back after these folks leave.

This will be the first time this trip that we have stayed more than one night in a place.  We have so many things on our list to see while we are out here, the miles are many between places and there's always that pressure to move on.  But today, we will sit, enjoy the scenery, the warm sunshine, read a bit and of course enjoy the ever present cup of coffee.
