We left Three Forks on Sunday and drove about an hour north to Canyon Ferry Lake.  We are right on the water and we can see the mountains on the other side of the lake.

A BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JOHN who is celebrating the BIG 60 today!  To make us feel young, we took the kayak out on the lake this morning and paddled around.  It was a peaceful ride and very good exercise.  Then we came back and relaxed and took naps 🙂  John did some drone video of me out by myself.  I didn’t go far because it’s a lot harder without John in the kayak doing most of the rowing.

We took a ride yesterday out to an old mining town by Boulder MT about an hour south of us.

These buildings were built in the 1890s when the town of Elkhorn was popular for silver mining. They were both used as a public gathering places for meetings, dances, weddings and other town events.  We were able to go in and walk around and you could feel the history of the place.

There was some traffic on the way home – gotta expect this in Montana:
