The Road Home..

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Our four day road trip brought us back home this evening.  We did some shopping in Great Falls before heading off to Helena.

The trip down was beautiful and it was amazing how in just a few short hours the weather/climate can be so different.

This is a picture leaving central Alberta:

Notice the white stuff in the ditch on the left side of the picture?  That is still snow, not a lot, but it is snow.

Crossing the mountains between Great Falls and Helena there is green grass in the ditch, no snow, temperature is 20 degrees Celsius and bugs are being splatted on the windshield:

Spent some time wandering around downtown historic Helena yesterday part of which included a stop at Prickly Pear Quilts:

Here is what I picked up while there!

Heading home today:

Gates of the Mountains, the lake river looked beautiful today.

North of Cutbank today we had three range horses gallop right up to the side of the highway to greet us, this one stayed the longest and probably would have stayed longer had another car not come along:

A little farther down the road we came across cattle grazing:

And I love the wide open space so I took this picture:

We arrived home a little late this evening and by the time we finished unpacking the F-350 it was bedtime for kiddo and hubby who has a couple more days of work here before heading off on his new adventure.

Tomorrow the plan is a DO NOTHING Spring Break Day!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...
