Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center




If ever you are in Great Falls, Montana, do not hesitate to stop by the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center and find out what interesting and historical sights and sounds are going on.


The location is impressive with a gorgeous view of the Missouri River and Black Eagle Dam.



If you are up for a walk and to get in touch with nature, there is a paved trail known as part of the River's Edge Trail that is connected to the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center. One direction will lead you to Giant Springs Park and Fish Hatchery and the other way will lead you across a very neat bridge that used to be a railroad bridge overpass along with many other sights on the water and around the shores.



I have included other postings today of the Blackfeet Indian dances performed on June 26, 2010 at the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center. I hope you have found the pictures delightful and the information worth the reading. I couldn't end this blog without including another final picture of the narrator of the evenings event performing a traditional indian dance. He was a very interesting and smart man (a lawyer) who is ground deeply in the beliefs of his people and wants to keep them alive and show the world a glimpse to obtain a better understanding and viewpoint. I hope to return again and see this group -- I may even venture to a pow wow in the near future.



And remember: "Only you can help prevent wild fires (forest fires)."

Out For A Little Walk



Yesterday evening was beautiful although a little on the hot side for us at 82 degrees. Today we are barely reaching 61 as rain has cooled us down quite a bit.

Some of the family did a some exploring of a walking, biking, and skating trail. It is called River's Edge Trail. Here are some pictures taken along the way -- beautiful, historical and interesting all the way.



Take some time and check out the Rails to Trails Conservancy Organization who helped establish the trail we visited and some that may be in your state.
