Hot Springs, MT

Just enjoying the visit with Toni, and, of course, the Hot Springs which were very hot yesterday! The doe and fawn make regular appearances in Toni’s yard. We saw a wildcat just once in Toni’s yard and he hasn’t come back yet. A young grasshopper caught my attention, also. And, a magpie left me a feather. At the library with Wi-Fi, so will post this today! I’m so excited to get a copy of Rural New Yorker on Interlibrary loan from 12/21/1957 in which Toni is on the cover! Library says it may take up to a week. Went to National Bison Range to see bison, elk, deer, and momma bear with 3 cubs, all with stunning background views, especially of Glacial Lake Missoula. One of the young workers at the Visitors Center graduated from Washingtonville High School, mine and my children’s Alma Mater-crazy! When the rest room was out of toilet paper, I joked with the Amish gals waiting that it would be a drip-dry experience! And while walking Bitterroot trail with expansive views, amazingly my phone rang! My son called to FaceTime with cutie-pie, granddaughter Cozy who’s now a little more than four months young. I’ve driven to Missoula twice and enjoy driving through Flathead Reservation. Earlier, Toni and I enjoyed the Hot Springs Museum. Life is good and I am thankful each day for the gift of life!
