Billings

Just getting home from the week in Billings. Bob was at a weather conference this week and also presented a study on "Snow Bands". He was pleased with how it went over and so was everybody else. Even though he was very nervous leading up to the presentation. While Bob was in meetings, I was out shopping, visiting friends, and checking out local scrapbooking stores. Since I lived in Billings for over 4 years, I know the area very well. Including all the great places to eat, drink, and socialize. The first night there we gathered with Bobs friends at the MT Brew Pub and enjoyed several micro brews and dinner. Then we ended up at the Carters-Rail Yard. . . . . a very fun bar and also a brewery next door. Later in the week, we also ate at: Texas Roadhouse, Olive Garden, & Pug Mahons (local Irish Pub with great Porkchop sandwiches and homemade chips). Also being how we always run into people I know, we ran into my cousin Rob Ridgeway at Pug Mahons. It was great to see him there. Also while in Billings I got to visit with many of my friends: Dottie and her son Carter, Megan and Britni. It was great to leave Great Falls for a while and we really enjoyed our week away.
