Good Times in Red Lodge

We had some good time away from Billings yesterday! Red Lodge is a small touristy town about an hour drive from us that we enjoy escaping to when we feel the need to get away. If you come visit us then you can almost be guaranteed a trip there :) We decided to see the Red Lodge that we always want to see but never take the time. Our first stop was a photo gallery just before we reach town, we have seen it for over a year now and always plan to stop on our way back out of town... of course that never happens because by the time we leave we are either too tired or too late and the place is closed. It was really a fun little gallery! Lots of beautiful mountain and wildlife photography but also some great stuff from the desert and some really creative stuff of flowers (we got you a bluebird picture Leigh :). It makes us want to spend way more than we ever will on some fun new equipment! We wandered around town a bit, looked in our favorite furniture store, stopped at the outdoor supply store and had some coffee... a really relaxing afternoon. We want to go camping some time soon so we drove up to a great camp site to see if it was open yet but it needs a couple more weeks (there is still snow everywhere!!), but soon hopefully. Neither one of us had to be back for work last night (rarely happens) so we were able to eat dinner and then just sit outside and enjoy the weather for a while before driving back, it was a nice day :)

Sorry, no pics to post... we kind of forgot to take them

I do have to say that sometimes it's nice to have no pix ... then you remember the way you felt and the way the sunset felt. Sometimes it's more real than a picture which captures it only 2 dimensinoally! Sounds like a fun day.
