Trip to the West...Day 3

First day in Missoula started great - we slept until nearly 8am! After breakfast we loaded into the cars for a short drive to Rattlesnake National Recreation Area to hike the day away. Montana is BEAUTIFUL!!

Here's the crew.

And the littlest hiker!

After being outside all day, we had worked up an appetite. We went downtown Missoula to check out Mckenzie River Pizza Company, since we've heard from several sources that the pizza there is some of the best. (and now we know it too)

Also located downtown, near the river, was a beautiful carousel and playground. All the kids loved it (young and old!)
