“We’re here!”
Pulled in about an hour and a half ago.
I made the back in in one try, which isn’t easy as they fornicated the angle of my driveway. It was supposed to slant more to the angle of approach. I’ll fix it with decomposed granite and gravel this summer.
Once we got everything set up, we didn’t have power.
We called the power company, it had been turned on. Our second lot had power, of course. So we called around and got the main foreman of the park. They are still developing it so there are folks here during the week.
He came by and ended up replacing the 200 amp breaker. The old one had crapped the bed.
He complained about them buying the cheap ass breakers.
As we were setting up, my darling wife screamed bloody murder. I assumed she injured herself…
No…
It seems as if a GA field mouse is in for a big surprise next winter.
We will begin to settle in more in the next couple of days. For now, my formerly large behind is tired. I’m chilling the rest of the day.
Please use the term media cave, - I hate the phrase man cave - it’s reductive and derogatory. As Sebastian Maniscalco said “my father had a man cave it was the house”
Thank you for reminding me. I wanted to talk about our post-show hangout in Memphis and here it is:
“Waiting for Sunrise”
We saw a road sign here on I-90 in Montana.
“Vehicles towing or over 29,000 lbs must have chains October 1 - May 1”
That means if we are to come out here prior to May 1, we need to come by a southern route.
Most of the day yesterday, we drove in heavy snowfall.
Nothing accumulating on the ground, although it built up on the front of my truck, which was covered with ice.
Not a lot of fun.

“Ensconsed in”
Cardwell MT.
Not much here, a proverbial wide spot in the road.
We are 19 miles west of ‘Three Forks’. Which is located at the ‘Head waters’ of the Mighty Missouri. It’s called three forks because the Jefferson, the Madison, and Gallatin rivers combine together to make the Missouri River.
Lewis and Clark followed the Jefferson River.
We had supper at a local steakhouse, located about two miles from our campsite. It was surprisingly busy for a Sunday, in the middle of nowhere.
Pictures:
1. The view from our campsite.
2. A pretty little valley next to the restaurant where we supped. A bend of The Jefferson River can be seen with cattle grazing on the other side. It’s a narrow valley, where Lewis and Clark camped and traveled through on their journey west.

Hardin Montana.
We are in another ‘Loves’ RV spot. This one is an actual campground.
We drove by ‘The Little Bighorn’ battlefield. It’s about 25 miles east of us. It’s off of US 85 on the Crow reservation. We’ve been there before.
Tomorrow we head to Caldwell MT, our last stop prior getting to our Summer quarters, which we will get to Monday.
