Harrold & Ruby go to Kinsey
Kinsey is an unincorporated community just outside of Miles City in eastern Montana. It’s population is approximately 135 people. Harrold and Ruby moved to Kinsey in 1942 because of Roosevelt’s WPA (Works Progress Administration). My Papa (Larry) was pretty young at the time, only about 5. I asked him if he remembered anything about […]
Museum/Tour: The World Museum of Mining
I’ll say it right off the bat, this one is totally biased. I ADORE this place. I have ever since I first went to school in Butte, I was able to work here my senior year as a tour guide, and I have a membership and visit every time I go to Butte! But, it […]
Tour: Our Lady of the Rockies
I lived in Butte for 5 years, and I NEVER visited the Lady on the hill! So, I decided it was finally time! It was a super cool tour, and the view alone was worth it! The tour takes anywhere from 2 to 3 hours, and costs $18 for adults. I HIGHLY recommend calling at […]
Where to Stay- A Cozy Airbnb
Most of the time, when you’re thinking of where to stay while you’re travelling, you just book a hotel and be done with it. That’s fine sometimes, but recently if I’m planning a weekend stay, we check around for new places to stay! Boutique hotels, cabins, and… B&B’s! I love Airbnb, it’s super easy to […]
Jelt Belt
Okay everyone, this is a really cool Montana business! (All of them are, but this one is completely out of the box!). I first found out about Jelt Belt when I was looking for a new belt that is a bit more comfortable than the regular belts you can buy at Walmart or other department […]
Hickey Cake- The Scanlan Tradition
I’m not sure about the rest of the Scanlan Clan, but in Larry’s family Hickey Cake is a summer tradition. Our side has an absurd amount of July birthdays, so every July we gotta make Hickey Cake! My grandma (Betty, Larry’s wife) always told us it was called Hickey Cake, because of the colors. The […]
More On Ruby
Ruby Viola Strausburg was born in 1909 in Kansas. Ruby and her family moved to Fergus when she was 5 years old. Ruby’s father, Sam, was on the school board while Ruby was growing up. Sam and the school board built a new school in 1919, and Ruby’s class was actually the first class to […]
The Beartooth Highway
When you hear about Montana, you usually hear about Glacier or Yellowstone. The Beartooth Highway is often overlooked as an amazing way to get into Yellowstone! This scenic byway is often referred to as one of the most scenic drives in America, and stretches 67 miles from Red Lodge to Cooke City. Naturally, since we […]
