twodot, montana

bob won the bid to rebuild part of an irrigation ditch in twodot, montana. he was gone for a month, but we were able to go support him for a week of the job.
this was his campsite. our new camper was purchased just for the occasion, i'm sure we will get a lot of use out of it, great bathroom and kitchen, mama's happy!

he dug it out and installed a 3 part liner system.


wind is the biggest resource here. logan couldn't even play at the playground one day it was so strong. poor little tyke was being pushed over every time he stood up!


daddy working with the crazy mountains in the distance. named after an early settler woman who became lost and destitude here. they found her here, a "crazy woman".





where in the hell is twodot?
well, its the gographical center of montana and the windiest place i've ever been.
first and the biggest windfarm in the state are here.
also where bob has been working for the month of april.

we missed him terribly, but we enjoyed our visit.

twodot is named for twodot wilson, a cattle rancher, who had two dots for his brand, on the the hip and shoulder. not a lot more than cattle ranches and windmills in twodot. the town was 2 blocks long and 2 blocks wide.
