This is a picture from The State of Montana - taken last year ather we had visited Little Bighorn Battlefield - a fantastic historical place to visit - have a great Thursday - thanks for looking into my blog and - don't forget to enjoy...

Little Big Horn and Cody

It was grey weather and kind of cold outside on Thursday - anyway we got to see Little Big Horn and I learned a little bit of old history.

We are having a great time - crusing around in our rental, The Ford Flex! It is a wonderful car to drive. My brother and I drive one day each. Nichlasen - he is just here - he is in the backseats - reading books!

The hotels are good - right now it is Holiday Inn we are staying at. Huuuge beds!

In this rondell! - there are quotes written on the walls - from all the big Indian wariors. I will show some of them another time.

Tomorrow is The 4th of July - and then there are parades and rodeos in the streets - and people are having a blast.

This is just a huge american truck with his horsesleeper and wagon - all in one! Huge - terrible huge!

Thank you for visiting my blog - I realy enjoy that - have a nice week-end and stay tuned!
