'7 Days in Utopia'.....

6:46 am - Tuesday - October 10th - Deer Lodge, MT - 50° F, humidity 71%, wind 5 mph out of the south by southeast......heavy cloud cover today with a chance of rain in the afternoon, and evening.  The view this morning......↴

.....on this date in 2010 TLE and I were in Santa Fe, NM at Santa Fe Skies RV Park.....↴

Like LPG&RVR, it is soooo quiet here at Rock Creek Cattle Company at night. The views are enormous, just as one would expect in Big Sky Country.  Bob and Hilary's home site has a wonderful 360° view of the horizon.  One can watch the sun rise and sun set from their rear patio....

Bocce Ball court, and horse shoe pit side by side

Snow on the local mountains

....Monday was another beautiful autumn day with the high temp hitting 78° F.  We took a hike around the golf course, which, just like LPG&RVR, closed for the winter this past Sunday....

Suspension bridge

This hole has more sand traps than the entire LPG&RVR golf course....lol!

.....upon our return I sat down to read a book....a real book, not an e-book....something I have not done for quite a while.  There was quite a long nap thrown in for good measure.

There are three guest rooms, and ours is a large ensuite.....

A sitting room/TV room

The bedroom, with another sitting area

The bathroom which features a separate bathtub, and shower, along with two sinks, as well as a great view to the east

.....of course, the living area is 'open concept.....

Living room with kitchen to the right

There are blue accents integrated into the entire interior decor

.....we all convened to the rear patio around 5:30 pm to watch the sun slip westward to the local mountains.  Sundown is officially around 7 pm here, but due to its proximity to the mountains it happens closer to 6:15 pm....

.....we had another lovely alfresco dinner, lots of wonderful conversation, and then retired indoors as the temps dropped quickly into the 50's.  I finished the book I was reading (7 days in Utopia....highly recommend....made into a movie starring Robert Duvall and Lucas Black), and then  TLE and I were headed off to slumberland before 9:30 pm.

Thanks for stopping by!
