Glacier

Friday and Saturday night we stayed in Two Medicine campground. Definitely the best campground we’ve ever been too, and probably the best we ever will. The view was extraordinary with different shaped, colored, and contoured mountains circling Two Medicine Lake where our campsite was.
If you look at the picture close enough you’ll see our camper.

Saturday we hiked around Two Medicine Lake. During our hike we came across a moose having a snack in the middle of a beaver pond. The beaver seemed to be a welcoming host.




Sunday we drove up to Rising Sun where we picked up Red Bus to traverse Logan’s pass. Our camper exceeded the 21’ limit for vehicles going over the pass. Just past Logan’s visitor’s center we saw mountain goats. The views up there are pretty unreal too with water falls, valleys, and snow drift just off the road.
We biked down to the lodge for dinner and after dinner we got a visit by a black bear right in our campground.

Monday Night we boondocked in Bozeman, MT after having dinner at Plonk Wine downtown.

Tuesday morning we found a campsite at Mammoth Springs in Yellowstone. We had lunch at the Roosevelt Lodge. They have an excellent Vegetarian Reuben. After lunch we thought we would head back to town to find some internet so we could tell you what’s been going on. On the way we came across another black bear. This one was probably only 2 years old. He was very focused on eating as much huckleberry as he could.

We’ve been asked several times about the RV, and it’s doing pretty good for an old RV. We have a little oil leak around the valve cover, so we need to add a quart every 1000 miles or so. We did loose something back in Minneapolis, and that was the clutch plate for our A/C compressor. We thought we heard something fall off, but we didn’t see anything missing and didn’t figure it out until we tried the A/C about 200 miles away.
We don’t need A/C now, but we think by the time we’re heading home, Kansas in the middle of July may be unbearable. If anyone has a good line on used parts, this is an aftermarket air conditioner. Manufacturer is unknown, the only name is on a cap and it could be from anything, but the name is Viking from Corwin, PA. Other identifying marks are the numbers 509618-5702 and O or Q or 0K8-15BH. If anyone can find this part for us on internet we would be very grateful and we’ll be sure to send you something memorable from our trip. Perhaps a six pack of Moose Drool, a fine brown ale that Valerie and I have come to enjoy.
