    Another beautiful streatch of Montana the color variance in the rock along the creek was exceptional. The campsite on prickly pear creek was like a dream. The view downstream was awesome. They even had a wheelchair accessible table so all can enjoy. Thank you it was very enjoyable. 💞

    On trips like this, traveling from state to state, it certainly would be nice to have a “national” fishing license, one that would allow you to wet a line anywhere you stop along the way.

    Big Wave Russ....Thank you for the wonderful, colorful, scenic video. What a great State of Montana...When I saw the beautiful place to camp yesterday by the River, yep that is Montana. Isn't it a wonderful State. We got the map out and tried to figure out where you said you were going, as we though it was on hwy 93 and Hwy 84, but we see it is on 278 and something....We love that area. Thank you for the Virtual holiday and Colin and I are enjoying our trip with you thoroughly. Thank you Russ for the share. Big Wave, and keep on trucking as we move forward ......Carolyn and Colin Hogarth BC Canada

    In the SF Bay Area, there's a view of the hills to the north of Angel Island that is said to look like a woman lying on her back. Supposedly this is an Indian legend, but I'm thinking it's the romantic invention of real estate promoters. It kind of does look like a woman.
    Has anyone estimated how tall the Sleeping Giant would be if he stood up? 8^) Maybe if he knew there was a woman for him in California!
    Great work, Russ. Keep it up!

    🙋‍♀️ Hello! The sleeping giant reminds me of Grandfather Mountain near by in Boone, N.C.. The statue of the man with the dog was interesting. That log home looked beautiful on that mountain top. Not many residences in Wolf Creek, a little town I'd enjoy visiting. Really has been a nice day Russ.

Excellent day. Mortermior campground is first place I took my kids camping by ourselves. Dad's not a camping fan, my favorite memories growing up is camping. We went to Glacier National Park every year for Ham radio, ham fest. Fun times!
