Day 27: 6/16/19: Brush Lake State Park to Flaxville, MT

A Pop Tart and banana powered me 32 miles this morning to Randy's Restaurant in Plentywood, MT.  The 2 pancakes below will hopefully get me on down the road.

Plentywood is a cool little town with a cowboy statue in it's town park (pic below).

For all you old tractor fans, I took several photos of tractors at the fairgrounds in Plentywood.

And an old International truck.

A few scenery pics of Eastern Montana.

Antelope. MT, main Street below.

Then went through Redstone, MT.  Below are some pics from around town.

Even though there is not much in Redstone, there is enough pride in the town to have a large "R" on a hill next to the town.

When I made it to Flaxville, I turned onto main Street to get a picture of the town. I turned back around and was headed out of town when I heard someone holler "Where are you headed?" I turned back around and talked to Art about my trip. He stated I could stay in his 5th wheel trailer if I wanted to, or I could pitch my tent on his property.  He also said he was about to grill some burgers and I could eat with them. I took him up on his offer, and met his wife, Kay, and several other members of the community. Flaxville's population is only about 75 and I met about 15 of those folks. Some pics below.

Main street Flaxville.

My plate.  Burger, potato salad, pasta salad a and chips. It really hit the spot.

Art and his sister, Cindy, ready for the horse race game.  I lost 45 cents on this game.

Art taking some local Young folks for a ride on his Polaris.

Art gave me a tour of his home, which is connected to the old pharmacy, one of the oldest buildings in Flaxville.  He has an old wood stove that he still uses for heat.  He has a lot of relics, including an old cedar canoe. I told him that American Pickers would love to tour his home.  He said he loves that show.

The original wall and ceiling of the pharmacy.

I camped in Art's warehouse. Below is a pic of my campsite.  It was perfect.
