Polson, MT




We traveled a whopping 64 miles to our next campsite in Polson, at the Eagle Nest RV Resort. Polson is at the south end of the Flathead Lake, where we inagurated our new kayak.
We met some great people at this park! They have a nightly happy hour, and then sometimes go out to eat. We joined them for dinner and had a great time. Steve pumped info out of everyone we met, on all kinds of subjects.
We attended a highschool football game for the first time since either of us were in school, and now we know why we waited that long. If you don't know someone who is playing, it is pretty boring.
One of our park hosts took us to see a woodcarver, and his work is fastinating. He uses a scroll saw to cut each piece individually, and then sands the edges, stains, and glues them back together. We saw one of his eagles and there must have been hundreds of pieces, as each feather is an individual cut and stain project. Beautiful!

  2. Nice to see you enjoyed beautiful Montana! At the time of this writing, I assumed you made it to Seattle for the NE/WA game? I watched the game on TV but never saw you ( ha ha). Imagine you're heading south for the winter?
