A Great Weekend

Our Vancouver Island friends arrived on Saturday about 6:30pm with sore fannies from riding all the way from Sturgis, South Dakota to our house. We met Jeannine and Garnet several years ago in Tucson, AZ. Garnet participates in the shooting sport, Cowboy Action Shooting, as we used to do. We have visited them on Vancouver Island, too. Their friend Donna was traveling with them, riding her own bike--very brave woman! We had a delightful weekend, visiting and doing a little sightseeing. We received lots of encouragement for attending Sturgis next year, we enjoyed hearing about all their fun they had while there. Don't know whether Michael and I are cut out for Sturgis or not, we will see.

The three of them got up early to get started north today and we joined them on our motorcycle for a while. We had breakfast in Big Timber then headed toward Livingston, MT saying our goodbyes in Clyde Park, MT. On our way back, we stopped at the home of our friend and realtor Gwen to discuss her trying to sell our land we own near Billings.

Yesterday afternoon on the deck--it was a delightful, cool evening and the pesky mosquitoes had finally settled down.

Sightseeing at Natural Bridge. Donna is on the far left, then Jeannine and Garnet.
Jazz found a new friend!
I baked a sour cream pound cake yesterday, using a recipe I have used dozens of time--guess I must have been talking too much to our friends because it was a mess--flat and way too dense. My friends were nice and all said it was delicious in spite of its strange appearance!!

A great weekend spent with good friends.
