Where the Wild Things....went on vacation


Much needed rest. Relaxation. Up into the woods. Away from people. Away from phones, computers, work. Just hanging with the fam.

Monday we drove our little "Fun Finder" to Lost Trail Resort. Just miles from the bustling burg, Sula, Montana. Jeez....population like, 20? Back to my childhood. So nice to go back again. Somehow things never really change in the woods. We parked our little trailer and settled in. Surprisingly we were the only people there. Nobody in the RV park, nobody in the cabins. Just us. We had the pristine pool to ourselves. It was paradise. With mosquitos and horse flies.

On Thursday we packed up and drove over the pass and into the Big Hole. After lunch at Fetty's Cafe in Wisdom, we headed to our final destination.....Elkhorn Hot Springs. Yep, another hot springs. Are you following our pattern here? Anyway, despite the beauty and remote location, we were nearly eaten alive by the mosquitos and horse flies. Thursday evening BB and Papa J came up from Dillon for dinner. Steak, potatoes and....bugs. Friday Nana, Papa S and Sis arrived for lunch. It was really a beautiful day. But, alas, we called it and headed home not long after our guests left. The Empress is apparently very allergic to mosquito bites and had several swell up to unbelievable size despite benedryl and caladryl. We arrived home late last evening. Exhausted but happy.
