Yesterday I drove 3 hours south to a tiny town called Wilsall, Montana. I have a horse named Fancy that is getting fancier by the day thanks to my horse trainer there. It's a bit of a drive to go see her, but a beautiful one. Then I get to ride and learn a lot! It's so worth the trip!
I took a little time during my drive to stop and shoot a few photos. Just whenever something caught my eye. So here is a little tour around Montana....

| Near Monarch, Montana |
The whole drive down to Wilsall I think I saw no more than ten other vehicles on the road. It is one of the most amazing, unspoiled drives in the state.

| But I did see cows.... lots and lots of cows. :) |

| The Crazy Mountains near Wilsall. |
The Crazy mountains used to be called The Crazy Woman mountains when I was a kid. Legend has it that they were named after a white woman whose family was massacred by Indians and went mad. She refused to leave their graves. The mountain man Liver Eating Johnson found her nearly starved. He then looked after her, bringing her food whenever he passed through. Robert Redford made a movie called "Jeremiah Johnson" that was loosely based on this legend.
On the way home I was witness to one of the most remarkable sunsets I have ever seen. I pulled off the highway to capture it. Believe it or not, I didn't have to tweak the exposure or color at all. Here it is in it's glory.....
I hope you enjoyed the tour....
'Til Next Time,
B
