Steve got up early and did some weed eating. Then I got up about 8 and we walked the dogs around the loop. We made a run to haul trash, get gas for the seedeater and fishing worms. It is free fishing weekend in Montana - so the guys tried their luck at fishing. They didn't catch anything, so we all rested. About 5:15 we started our fire and fixed supper. We had potatoes cooked in foil and smoked sausage. We walked the loop road again and later made S'mores. We sat outside and enjoyed the weather. The sunset was beautiful tonight.

Sunday - June 16 Father's Day
Steve did some more weed eating this morning. Then we had breakfast and walked the dogs. I helped Steve do some more weed eating. Today was a very busy day at Echo Lake. After lunch and taking a short nap we drove to town. We were going to have pizza to celebrate Father's Day - but they were closed. So we had hamburgers at Burgertown! It was really great! If you are ever on the east side of Flathead Lake - near Bigfork - check out Burgertown. The burgers are Yum and the French Fries are just right!. We also washed the pickup while we were in town. It rained on the way home and most people had left the lake by the time we got back.

We completed and routine here at Echo Lake then went to Bigfork to check that fishing access. We hauled the trash and then stopped at Echo Lake Cafe for lunch (brunch). We sat outside with the dogs most of the afternoon. I did some bill paying and caught up Steve's checkbook. We walked part way around the loop road. The guys hauled and cut scrappy limbs to use for firewood for 2 or 3 hours. I gave the dogs their heart worm pills then we watched TV.

We did the usual chores and Steve did more weed eating. The propane alarm went off before we took our walk and it scared us half to death! We found out it was 5 years old and basically expired. So we got around and went to Gardners Rv near Kalispell and picked up a new propane alarm at $94.00 Wow! Next we went to Walmart and bought a blackstone griddle and tons of other stuff! I wanted to check at Cabellas for a lounge chair (they didn't have one) so I bought 2 Life is Good T shirts. We also stopped at Snappy's to look for a chair - no luck.
When we got home about 4:45 PM we couldn't find the RV keys! Lucky I had a spare set! We put up the groceries and Steve installed the new propane alarm. I called all the places where we went in Kalispell to see if anyone had turned in any keys - No luck with that. We finished watching Yellowstone season one on DVD and are now ready to watch season 2 on TV.
Wednesday - June 19
We were up and around pretty good this morning. It was windy! Our old awning is tearing up worse. We picked up litter on the road above the entrance to Echo Lake. I called places about awning stuff. Logan has been chopping wood. Steve cleaned the fan and fixed the water hydrant
. We retracted our awning so it wouldn't get worse. I fixed chili for supper and then we watched Yellowstone and Longmire. Kristi and Austyn are on their way up here, they got all the way to Fort Collins, CO today.
Thursday - June 20
It was 47 degrees this morning and also raining. We took our dogs out but didn't walk. I caught up the checkbook and we went to town and did laundry. Steve forgot his wallet so we started the clothes and then the guys went back to the RV to get his wallet and walk the dogs some more. We did laundry, hauled trash, checked the access, had lunch, stopped at the grocery and hardware store while we were in town. We walked the between rain storms. We also put our phone number on the remainder of our keychains.

Friday - June 21
Today was cool and rainy again. We took a short walk after breakfast. Steve worked on the day/night shade by our desk. He also fixed the stove cover and the water hydrant. We walked around the loop and then watched Judge Judy. Kristi and Austyn arrived and we met them at Echo Lake Cafe. After they rested a bit we went to town and ate pizza. We showed them some of Bigfork and returned to the RV. Steve & Logan put up the awning again and made us a fire for S'mores. We sat out until 9:45. It got cool and rained more - so we turned in. Some guy came to the RV twice to use our phone to call for a ride .. Finally got to bed about 11 PM.
