Addendum to the 4th

We made it to Billings, Montana. We had expected the KOA to be a typical, boring venue but it was hopping. The campground was completely full and guests ranged from Florida to Saskatchewan.  I was feeling a bit whiney for not experiencing any 4th celebrations but that soon dissipated when we arrived. They were celebrating the 4th in style! We were in middle America, such a stark contrast to the Breckenridge resort!  Splashing at the pool, music blaring from live entertainers, kids roaring around on trikes, ice cream being scooped, and families playing miniature golf. It was a flurry of activity and very heart warming to see.  Their little outdoor diner, quaintly named Pistol Pete's, offered a variety of meats all accompanied by corn, beans, potato salad and Texas toast.  Dirk enjoyed a delicious, perfectly cooked ribeye.


After dinner we sat and listened to the music and even danced a bit to the delight of the entertainers while Princess B entertained a young girl named Skyler.

We are close to the border now so there won't be any updates until we purchase a hotspot in Calgary.  Into the land of limited media!
