August 6 - 12, 2018 The Dog Days of Summer

This week started out with the same routines. On Monday though we went to Bigfork to haul our trash and do our thing at the Bigfork fishing access site. We also stopped at the visitor center and grocery store in Bigfork. Since we  did not have the dogs  I also stopped at the UPS store in Bigfork to see about getting Steve's shots sent there. We left home with enough shots for 3 months - but we will actually be in the RV about 4 months before we arrive home. So we wanted to check with VA about getting another box of shots shipped to us before we leave this area.  I thought it would be easier than trying to get the shots shipped when we hit the road home.  This is also the day I got so frustrated trying to update the blog and just didn't do anything on it.

Tuesday arrived and I call the VA first thing in the morning  and they were great to work with.  We figured out how to have the shots sent to Bigfork UPS office. There were some wasps down by the dock in the doggie poop bag dispenser - so Steve sprayed them and only got one sting.
Deer - spotted on our walk


Wednesday - Steve did extra weed eating. We also changed the air filters in the air conditioner because we didn't think the new Air Conditioner was cooling great.
Thursday we did Laundry and got the oil changed in the pickup. While I was at the laundry - UPS called and said Steve's shots had arrived!  Boy, I love it when a plan comes together. We ate lunch at the Grateful Bread (quiche, toast and fruit bowl and split a smoothie). It was great!

Saturday Morning was lovely!

New water filter - Left
Saturday - we changed the water filter (from the well water).  Lots of difference


It has been unusually hot for Montana - it got up to 98 degrees here!  Saturday was 91 degree
 Some of the floats people use here.














 We are just trying to stay inside the RV when the temperature heats up!

Sunday we went to the Strawberry Lake Trailhead and to the Krause Interpretive trail.  It is always about 5 degrees cooler there - and so nice.
