The flies have moved into the area. We have not had flies until the last couple of days. I think Jean got a dozen today.
Fall is here and everything is starting to turn.

We have a moose run between us and the river this morning.
I was reading on my Ipad and by the time I got it up to take pictures he had run up river a couple of campsites and then took off across the river.

Moving day again, drove up to Palisades Campground and got site 1. Then into town for gas, propane, dump, food and laundry. We have been running the generator quite a bit so we needed to get gas.
It was cold this morning, here is the ice I got off the large slide topper this morning.

Cold again this morning 22 degrees outside and only up to 66 today.
One of the things I added to the coach this year is an extended stay propane gas system. This allows us to use an external propane bottle so we don’t have to drive the coach 28 miles into town when we need propane.
The bulk propane we have gone to in the past is closed to fill bottles and RV’s. They have a sign on the door directing people to the grocery store or one of the gas stations for bottle exchange. We went to the gas station and exchanged bottles for $19.99. The guy at the station did say their is another bulk propane place a little further out of town, we try that one the next time we need propane.
Fished in the afternoon and got nothing, oh well.
Palisades CG, MT – Monday September 7, 2020
It was cold this morning 27 degrees when I got up the morning. Went to Ennis to do laundry and get some propane.
Fishing in the afternoon but I got nothing.
Along with the cold we have had wind.
I had to take some scrap paper and tap it together so the wind would not blow out the refrigerator.
Oh, and we had snow this evening.
