Yaak, Montana

Last Thursday morning the kids and I drove to Yaak, Montana. My friend, Aurelia and her two girls,

spend a week there every summer visiting her dad. This summer,since Aurelia's husband could

not go, our friend Rachel came along too! Bonus! Two friends, one visit!

Aurelia's dad and his wife live on the Yaak River in a rustic

cabin that any Alaskan would be jealous of. No hot water, wood for heat,

fresh goat milk in the morning and afternoon, three large

gardens, bear rugs in each room and no bathroom door. Needless to say,

we had a blast.

We did several hikes, played with the goats (Heidi and Peter are the ones in the pictures), swam in the rain,

played by the river, cooked dinners and lunches on camp stoves

and charcoal grills, and let the kids explore

to their hearts content.

It was much easier doing a slide show since I had so many

pictures!
