A Capital Idea
No time for full-blown destination trips with family in town and decks to strip/re-stain but have had a few days to spend poking around on some lesser-loved water. Wife had a quilting thing to attend in Helena so I decided to ferry the trailer and tag along. Took the longer route but Marias Pass is easier on the brakes/transmission, and the wind was at our six
quick stop for gas in Conrad; always interesting things for sale (apparently coyote urine has replaced bobcat in the ungulate defense world)
purple mountains
amber waves
and me without cards, or my board
Got the trailer settled, dropped the wife off downtown, and headed out. Too late in the morning to hit the tricos on the big river over the hill and I really wasn't in the mood for that mob scene; lots of other options.
