Path Stays True, Route Changes

For the time being, no longer looking for a truck. Started actually seeing trucks in the range I am willing to pay, but not trucks we are willing to buy. Should have known, but they looked pretty good online. Didn't mind paying a bit more, but after outfitting it for the job it is intended to do, the cost just went beyond what we were willing to pay. Still need a vehicle for our work up at Yellowstone, so now looking at renting. We can get a car for the entire time we are there at a fraction of the cost of buying. No added insurance, no worries about an older vehicle and maintenance, no extra items needed to set it up. PLUS, we still have our enclosed trailer to use, this works as a garage for the motorcycle, transport for the extra "stuff".

Fly Fishing
I will be taking the novice fly fishing course with Rhea Topping in July. Really looking forward to this. Good old eBay, got a new rod, reel, line and vest at a very low buy in price. Everything for less than the retail value of the vest! I will wait till I get up in the area to get other items.

Native Plants - the Indian Store
Jolene will be taking this course. Identify and find the plants the Indians used for food, medicine etc. Learn how they were used, and customs of the native Americans. This is right up Jolene's alley, she is fascinated with what happened in history. Natural cures, herbs etc. She gets to take her class in June and stay in a log cabin!

www.yellowstoneassociation.org if you go to Take a Course, look these up. Really cool offerings! Come out to Yellowstone and take one.
