Day 1

Today we got off to a fabulous start! We drove about 600 miles and stopped for the night at a KOA campground in Great Falls, MT. We've seen some pretty country today and some really flat farmlands too! The KOA is fabulous, It has a hot tub, pool with multiple slides, gardens we can take veggies from, free firewood, hot showers, flushing toilets, friendly people, a blugrass band that plays every night, wireless internet, and free breakfast. Now thats what I call camping!! Tomorrow we are off to an early start and we will be going into Canada. Here at the campground we met some Canadians who gave us a bit of advice about traveling in Canada: Dont pick up hitchhikers. Good Idea, even if we wanted too, they would have to sit on top of buddy! No, No we definatly wont be picking anyone up. This trip is all ours.

  1. hey Mikki! srry to burst your bubble but after having lived in great falls I know now that the statue on the mtn is not Jesus, though first time driving through that's what I thought too. She's the "Lady of the Rockies". Butte is a very Catholic town and she's honored in there but i don't know what for. But Great pictures! I didn't even know our KOA was that stocked! I've always wanted to go camping but it was just right outside of town so Nate always said that it wasn't REALLY camping, poo on him.
