... and Gullfoss<br><br>That's it so far, I have a long way to go. <br><br>Once in Scandinavia I'm hoping to jet north. (no detailed plans here yet) I'd like to venture around Bergen and possibly up to Trondheim when in Norway, and if it's not to freezing, head up to Lapland north of the Arctic Circle, especially if I didn't get a chance to see the Aurora in ...

We went to Yellowstone today.Here're the headlines-- hard driving ,beautiful mountain views,waterfalls, and wildlife, blah,blah,blah!(Look at the pictures.) I know what my peeps want to hear - the dirt on how we're getting along.I told you that I was worried about Linda being too organized. Actually she's been totally flexible, going with ...

... definitely worth checking out.<br><br>We are now in a fancy dancy KOA campground in Missoula, where we were able to take a shower for the first time since we left. I smelled like roses the whole time, but Jess on the other hand, ( I just got punched), smelled lovely too.<br><br> Tomorrow were off to Bozeman, then Yellowstone.<br><br>See ya,<br><br>Nic and Jess<br><br>

... The ride down I don't watch.<br><br> We arrived to at this nice park and it was raining (which it has done every evening since we have been on the road). The topic of conversation when you talk to a Montanian is the amount of rain they have had this year. They said that usually this time of year everything is burned up from the dry ...

Instead of driving back through the Tetons and Yellowstone, which would have taken hours, we drove north, strait through Idaho and headed to Missoula, Montana. On the way we stopped at a local brewery and sampled the spirits. Little did we know we would hit two more breweries that<br>day. But I guess that's how those sort of days start. We stayed with a couch surfer and great guy, Bob. He knew the town well and was ...

... of Coach Samps before meeting up with Kristi and Coach for a tour of Missoula and Montana University (where he used to coach) before hitting the town for a few drinks. Coach Samps should run for mayor of Missoula as popular as he is...good times.

... the towns, the views, the houses and everything else to Helena.  Neither of us really knew what we were expecting but whatever it was Helena far exceeded it.  I know for sure that had there been a school there that I could go to to get the degree I want, it would have been an easy sell and we'd be out scouring the classifieds right about now!    <br>

... chairs, kitchen tables, counters. I've only found two dressers and a table that collect any dust worth mentioning. The bathroom can get pretty dirty, four of us using one - but there's only one sink, toilet and tub to clean - how long can it take? No rugs mean no vacuuming, just a simple sweep now and then while kids are playing quietly, and a biweekly mop. At home, though I haven't calculated it all out, I'm sure that between us two parents we must spend a few hundred Calories ...

... western Massachusetts. I asked Aislyn yesterday what she missed about our home. "Nothing," she replied nonchalantly. But that sibling bickering belies her. Not that it doesn't happen at home; of course it does. But home is home. It is comfortable and there are millions of tiny places to relax - into a favorite toy, the pillow fort on the couch, with friends on the rocks just outside, in the strawberry patch. There are places to disappear and places to come together ...
