It’s right on 4pm and we have our camp established in the Beverly Beach State Park Campsite. The day has been mostly overcast and cool though there have been some sunny spells. Being in the Landy and on the road again is marvellous. The scenery after leaving Scott and Marsha’s…
Today was spent packing and tidying up the Land Rover. Kelly and Stacy went to work and left us free run of their house to get ourselves organised for our short trip back to the UK. Thank you Kelly and Stacy for your generous hospitality. Dennis gave the Land Rover…
What a great day, and night last night. Jen’s 70th birthday celebration meal with Logan & Jamie and news during it, of a successful bid for their first house. It was a warm, pleasant evening. I should mention that flowers for Jen I ordered online yesterday, never arrived and still…
This morning was a bit different. It was overcast when we surfaced. I also woke up as a septuagenarian. That took a bit of getting used to! A lovely surprise present was to see fellow camper, Mindy, walking across the campsite with a steaming latte, from her Nespresso machine. A…
What a glorious camp site we have tonight. No other campers except the Camp Host and his wife who are in their large RV (Recreational Vehicle). They have been living in it for the past 14years. It has an 8L V8 Chev petrol engine that does 7mpg!!!! Leaving the camp…

Trying to get away from the camp site this morning was a challenge. So many people to chat to, about all sorts of things. Our last discussion could have gone on all day. It was with a Rail Engineer or Train Driver, in NZ. He was a real nice guy.…
Another lovely blue sky day. We have been really fortunate with the weather. On the road from our wild camp by about 1030. After a short ride we turned left on Hwy 200, heading for Missoula. Stopping at a historical marker, we learn about Bob Marshall’s Wilderness Country. Marshall was…
The best nights sleep for weeks. For me. Jen, not so. Again the morning has dawned beautiful. The sun is warm but overall temperature is slightly cool. On emerging from the Landy we find the camp site has filled considerably. There is a Rodeo on in town on Sunday and…
Something different this morning, A cloudy day. We had thought it might rain overnight, but it didn’t. Leaving the motel at just after 10 am we drove out of Billings heading for Helena. I have to admit I had never heard of Helena. It is the capital of Montana, though,…
