Camping at a former prison

We left Willard UT, mid-morning, joyous to get away from the flies and mosquitoes. Our destination is Deer Lodge, Montana. We were set to stay at a Harvest Host that was an old prison. We arrived early evening and quickly got setup in the parking lot. To our surprise another Airstream was parked in the spot next to us. Meeting other Airstream people is always fun, we took tours of each others trailers and talked about traveling and the general RV lifestyle. I feel like modifications to trailers to make them our own is a common point of interest. Discussing why we changed something always sparks fun conversation and new ideas.

We are almost done with our northern hustle. 230 Miles tomorrow should land us at Glacier National Park for the next 8 days. I am looking forward to bike rides, home cooked food, and not towing Olive

Notes

The Harvest Host was awesome, good stop over point with access to waterfront walking trails. A massive lumber mill was across the river, I suspect the decibel level is high on non-holidays.

We visited Mount Powell tap room. they were dog friendly. I had a flight of beer tasters, that was focused on local Montana beer. We enjoyed our time chatting with each other and the locals. Minny and Doowee were a hit as many people came over to give them cuddles and scritches.

We walked the main street and window shopped all the local fare. The town was enjoyable to walk through. We decided to eat out at Cell Block Tavern.
