So, being the small town celebrities that we are (seriously though, they put our pictures in the paper and Mandy got free coffee), and having a wonderful homestay with impeccable connections, we were able to get into the Phillips County Museum today! It's normally closed in the winter, but like I said, we have connections! It sounds pretty lame, especially when you consider the fact that there is a full blown dinosaur museum next door that is entirely closed, but I can guarantee that it was the exact opposite.
I went with Mandy and our tour-trainer Kevin. The museum is simply about the history of the area, stemming back from the dinosaurs (because yes, they had a dino too. It's name was Elvis) to pretty much modern day. They had SOOOO much stuff. Mandy said at one point that you're used to seeing this stuff in pictures, but never up close. It was really cool to get a glimpse of the lives of people in Montana in the friggin 1800s, that's for sure.
