Camping Again!

August 16th we packed up and headed for Bozeman. This time we had reservations for a campsite near Hyalite reservoir! Our campsite was not the prettiest but it was near a creek and close to some trails and the lake. We lucked out and had some fish "donated" by a retired gentleman (and disabled veteran) who lives in Florida but spends the summer months in Bozeman. His landlady doesn't want him cooking fish in the house so he usually does catch and release, but in this instance he gave us his bounty. That is part of the fun of camping is meeting people whom we would probably never come into contact with otherwise. The people who were camping next to us thought the girls and Baxter and Zero were adorable. They had a couple of small dogs that they let the girls come over and play with. We fished, played in the stream, ate roasted marshmallows, played in the lake and hiked to another waterfall. This ended up being the last camping trip of the summer and we all had a great time.
