Great Falls for the Festival

We hung out at Hellgate Campground till mid afternoon spying on the bank swallows, reading, hiking, and, yes, even a nap. Then continued South on MT284 around the south end of Canyon Ferry Lake, then North and West on US12, then North on I15 through Helena and into Great Falls. The goal of this is to make an early appointment to Martin's RV Service for refrigerator repair, prior to the opening of Montana Audubon's Wings Across the Big Sky festival. Just as a point of interest, there is a great bakery, with espresso, in Townsend, on US12.
