In the days leading up to Memorial Day weekend, our weather got progressively worse. Cold, rainy, yuckie. Then on the Sunday it snowed. By the time I got up it had melted at the house, but you can see it in the hills about a mile behind us.
We decided to drive to Missoula, because it was supposed to be a bit warmer, and we wanted to go to the mall. So we got in the car and headed out.
I'll call this bit
Roadside Photographer:
Here is the view of Mt. Helena.
Then we headed into the Mountains, through McDonnell pass towards Missoula.
And there was a little snow in the pass.
But on the other side when we got back out of the mountains, things got greener.
This is a Beaver Slide.
It's a contraption used for stacking hay in a big ol pile.
unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the hay piles.
Barn
Beavertail Rd.
Lots of beaver references in Montana.
After a few hours we made our way home. Missoula is only slightly more exciting than Helena.
Silent Hill?
This totally reminded me of the beginning of that movie.
icky snow.
I even made a little video. It's not the least bit exciting, and I move the camera way too much, But I am learning.
Have a lovely day, and remember to find me on
Facebook!
