Mikkola and I spent the morning making any last preparations in the house before we went to Montana for the weekend. We dropped They off at her doggie daycare for the weekend and then waited until Dar-Dar got off work to hit the road. It was a long car ride, roughly 4 hours, but the sights were absolutely beautiful!
After a while we finally crossed into the state of Montana! I didn't know that it was also called Crow Country, which makes sense because the Crow Tribe lives on a good part of the land.

We even passed near the site of Colonel Mustard's Last Stand: The Battlefield of Little Bighorn! Too bad we couldn't stop to check it out.

I slept for a good while, finally waking up when the sun was beginning to set. We were about 40 minutes away from our destination: Billings, Montana!

When we entered Billings, we went in search of the Air B&B that Mikkola had booked for us. It ended up being in a small condominium right next to the hospital called The Phoenix Condos. It was very quiet and for good reasons: the entire building was made up of elderly people! We had to be quiet because of this, but the condo we were staying in was so comfy!

After we settled in, we decided to walk the short distance to downtown Billings. We ended up at the Montana Brewery Company where we took a seat at the bar and ordered some of their specialty drinks: most of which involved strawberries. We had actually come to Billings because tomorrow we'd be going to the Strawberry Festival! We all ordered some delicious strawberry drinks. We also ordered a delicious apple cobbler. I've never tasted anything so good!

After we had several drinks, we walked back to the condo and called it a night. I'm looking forward to seeing the Strawberry Festival tomorrow!
