June 19, 2016 - Livingston, MT

Today we slept in.  Peter called to wish Terry and Happy Father’s Day and we had a long chat.  We went into Livingston and had a great burger – Montana beef and bison is awesome!  Then we walked around the historic downtown window shopping because here, shops are closed on Sunday.  People are friendly and it’s really laid back.

This evening we attended the weekly All You Can Eat Ice Cream Social at the RV park.  We were able to get some hints from experienced full-time RVers.  It was also laundry day so we used our collapsible wagon to haul our load.  It’s the first time we’ve used it.  We had thought it’d be good for hauling groceries if we needed to walk to a store.  Now we’ve got two uses for the wagon.

QUESTION OF THE DAY…How are the Salmon Flies getting into the RV?  They show up at night, attracted to the lights in the RV.  We have 30+ flying around.  The more you kill them, the more they re-appear!  They don’t bite.  They are small and are everywhere.  Based on the sign in the bathroom, we think we’re supposed to close all our windows at night because they are small enough to fit through the screens and cracks but it’s a nice night with a light breeze so we’ve kept our windows open with screens on them.  Last night we left one light on far away from us for the Salmon Flies.  They were happy.  We’re not sure where they go in the morning…
