Part One

This will be a rambling sort of a story, I know that a properly written one is supposed to have a definitive beginning, middle and end and if you are going to jump back and forth, then there are literary procedures to follow. All of which I am a little unsure of, so this will just be a bit of a blathering tale. As some of you know, I have a vivid imagination and it tends to colour my stories, but that's what an adventure is all about; seeing things in a new light and wondering what if....? So, I think I will call this tale: A Drive with Stephen King or Apocalypse Now!


We started out towards Kalispell, the weather was sunny, the traffic was sparse, an excellent day for travelling. We arrived in Kalispell just after lunch and found a pretty little campground to spend the night in. You can see in the first picture what our cozy home-away-from-home looks like, and we had a wonderful sleep. The next morning we had a little outdoor breakfast and decided to head South towards Missoula, but on the way out of town we spotted a craft fair that just begged us to stop and visit. It was the most spectacular craft fair that I have ever seen, every vendor was in a white tent under the trees, with one or two being a different colour, just to throw in a bit of brightness. All the handicrafts were amazing, everything from glorious hummingbird feeders to a whimsical lady who made hats. It was almost like a Renaissance fair. My-oh-my, what a sweet little holiday we were having.....
