I've been here for three days and can't figure out why they call it "big sky country." With all of these beautiful mountains surrounding us, I haven't noticed the sky at all.
Today we started the day working with the Gallatin Valley Land Trust again. We fixed up two more sections of trail. The first was a beautiful connecting trail section in a wooded area near a stream. The second section was close to the hospital. This section is mainly used by people commuting to work on foot. It's amazing to see the number of people who walk or bike everywhere they go. After a quick lunch at Bozeman United Methodist Church, we headed out to the start-up church in Belgrade to finish up the work we started yesterday. Part of the group weeded the area that the preschool kids will be using as a playground, another group stained the wooden playground equipment and the rest of us finished staining the front entrance. We also scouted out the location for tomorrow's workday.
We're looking forward to walking downtown for the "Bite of Bozeman" event tonight. They close down main street for traffic and all of the vendors and restaurants put out their wares to sample.
If I hadn't promised to get everyone's children back safely, I might not come back.
