Today we started our day off outside of Red Lodge. We went up to the area past Emily's girl scout camp and went for a hike. It was early in the day so it wasn't hot yet, in fact we could have gone jeans for it. We went to a lake called Wild Bill Lake, it was built in 1902 by a man named “Wild Bill” Kurtzer.
It is very pretty up there and a nice easy hike. One part of the hike is sandy and Emily goes look Mom we made it to the beach.
The hike ends up being about a mile so after we were done we went to eat lunch.
After that we went back around the lake one more time then we headed back to Red Lodge. Here are a few photos from the hike.
We decided to try this place called Red Box Car and that's what it is, a red box car where they make the food and it has a very nice place to sit outside by a stream. While we were waiting for our drinks the kids were talking to this other boy who had a bunny and they both got to hold it, now they want a bunny.
We got our root beer floats and sat down to eat them.
Then we headed to
Chief Plenty Coups Park, it took 17 miles of dirt road but we made it. Once there we headed to the information part and looked at artifacts then the kids got to sit on a buffalo hide and make beaded jewelry.
After that we went to his house which was built in 1886. It was very big for how old of a house it was
but I wish it would have been more set up with how he would have had it. All they had was this one part set up the rest was empty space.
The stair part reminded me of the stairs my Grandma and Grandpa had in there old house.
After that it was time to head home and start getting ready for school. We saw cowboys and we saw indians, but where did the weekend go
