Being a horrible, horrible man, I convinced my wife it was quite okay for her to ride the carousel in her dress. Her only problem came when a little toddler and his mom got on, and she sacrificed the chariot she was going to be riding in, and had to climb on a horse.
She still isn't 100% happy with how she takes a picture, but seeing her yesterday reminded my of another carousel she was riding last June in Bickleton.
That was the picture that motivated her...and 50 pounds later, I'm here to tell you folks...hubba hubba. Now she looks like I stole her picture out of a Lands End catalog.
And yes, the girls had a good time also...it was just tough to get a good picture of them...it was a surprisingly high speed carousel.
After that, it was on our way to our final destination of Bozeman, via Deer Lodge and Butte.
In Deer Lodge, we stopped to have an inexpensive lunch of peanut butter and honey sandwich's(yes, between light lunch and salad for dinner, it was a day to let our tummies rest) on a picnic table at the Grant-Kohrs ranch, which we just didn't have time to properly explore.
You can't beat free, so we swung through Butte and visited the Mineral Museum at Montana Tech, where there was some neat stuff. I'll spare you pictures, but wikipedia does it better. It's another one of those things that is worth the stop, even if it's not worth the trip.
