Huck Pie

Well, the huckleberry pie was not worth the calories or the cost. Bummer.  The filling was good but the crust was like cardboard. Very disappointing.  Won't be getting any more from that place!

Our new lamp and some LED lights in the wall sconce behind the sofa bed sure make a difference.  I plan on doing some crocheting tonight while we watch the Olympics.  I haven't done any for ages.  Hope I remember how. 

We went out exploring this morning, but that was disappointing. Nothing open on Sunday mornings except the churches and Wal-Mart.  No galleries, tourist shops, restaurants that we could find.  We went looking for the dam that is associated with Flathead Lake (the largest body of fresh water east of the Mississippi, according to something I read).  We missed the signs and ended up way out in the ranch/farm land.  Pretty, but we've been looking at that scenery for a few days now.  So, back into town we came to check out what there was to see.  Nothing.  We had nice views of the lake but that was about it.  We did find a restaurant that was associated with a hotel that was open and had lunch.  That was our excitement for the day. We've been here before when we went to Glacier NP several years ago, so driving around looking at the scenery just doesn't appeal.  And we avoided some storms and flash flooding, too, by staying home. (See next paragraph)

It has looked like rain off in the distance all day and tonight when we watched the local news we found out that most of western Montana is under a severe thunderstorm/hail storm watch.  We are surrounded and are sitting in a storm holiday, thank goodness.  

Cloudy, light winds, cool (I don't think it reached 80 today) enough for long pants for me.  Silly Roger - he only brought one pair of jeans he had bought recently and one nice pair of pants. The jeans were dirty and the pants fell off him.  He has lost a lot of weight in the last few months - down to a 30 waist size. When we looked at the pants he brought - 34.  No wonder he had trouble keeping them up.   I should have such problems! 

Anothere quiet day planned for tomorrow.  Maybe some touristy shops will be open to check out?
