I've been really busy lately trying to experience as much as I can here in Montana and around the community. For my birthday, I went to Kalispell, MT, which is over the mountains west of Shelby. I took lots of great pictures and was amazed at the scenery. As in America the Beautiful, the Rockies are Majestic! The Flathead river is a beautiful sea-green color and runs along the highway to get to Columbia Falls, on the west side of Glacier National Park. Kalispell is in a valley, to which you can turn 360 degrees and see a ring of mountains surrounding the flat land.
Today, I went to the Montana High School Rodeo Qualifier over at the Marias Fairgrounds right outside town. It was just like a regular rodeo, except the competitors were teenagers. I took lots of pictures which will be posted on FB in a bit. I've been to rodeos before, but being at one in Montana was a different experience. Here, you have the surrounding scenery to go with it.
