RV PODCAST INTERVIEW OF THE WEEK
This week the podcast interview is… with us! We’re going to share an interview that was done with us by Camping World. It’s part of a mini-documentary they did on us that was shot at our campsite at the Holland Michigan State Park last fall.
It aired nationwide last week on their Ultimate RV Show and we present it here for you on the podcast for those who missed it.

OFF THE BEATEN PATH RV PODCAST REPORT FROM MONTANA 
 
BY TOM & PATTI BURKETT
Oh,” said the lady on the other side of the table, “I’m so glad you picked that one!  That cookie recipe won the blue ribbon at the State Fair eight years ago.”  
It was late September, and the Rocky Mountain Front farmers market had pretty slim pickings—apples, Brussels sprouts, a bit of kale, and these jars of fine looking cookies.  
Even though the season was clearly winding down, a dozen or more folks were gathered, chatting, around the coffee pot, whose long electric tail stretched to the municipal building across the lot.

A lot of us like to spend some time every now and then in Glacier National Park.   
If you’re entering the park from the east side, the quickest way us up Interstate 15 and then across US 2 to East Glacier or up to Saint Mary.  
We’re a hundred percent in favor of spending as much time as possible in the park, but, as is often the case, taking a less hurried route to get there can pay off.  
Unless we’re in a big hurry or the weather is bad, we avoid the four lanes, opting instead for the almost-always-present older blue highway that goes through the center of town instead of bypassing it.
Such was the case as we made our way north toward Glacier along US 89, the original highway connecting Yellowstone to Glacier.  

The Old Trail dino
It’s a great road trip all on its own, starting in Flagstaff and winding north through a half dozen National Forests, past the Great Salt Lake, through the Teton Valley, and reposting the traveler at the edge of the Waterton International Peace Park on the US-Canadian border.  
If you drive it right up here near Glacier, you’ll undoubtedly be stopped by the imposing brightly colored dinosaurs that greet visitors outside the Old Trail Museum in Choteau, Montana.
Sadly, the museum had closed for the season by the time we wandered through, but the dinosaurs and the other exhibits outside made it worth a look anyway, and that’s how we came across the farmers market, in a parking lot around the side.  
Up here, way north of the Teton Park, the Teton River is dry much of the year, and droughts are not uncommon.  Still, it’s a fertile and productive agricultural area that’s supported a strong community since its founding in the 1880s.  
Among the things you’ll notice as you drive through are the school and county courthouse, both made of stone quarried from nearby Rattlesna...
