Welcome to Libby, MT

Welcome to Libby, MT.  It is absolutely beautiful up here!  We arrived on Wednesday June 20th.  We were amazed on how beautiful the mountain roads were on the way up here.  We have never seen anything so beautiful in our lives!  At first we were nervous about coming to a travel nurse assignment so far north, but now we are so excited to be in such a beautiful place and cannot wait to go see the wonderful tourist attractions that Montana has to offer.

 This has to be the biggest mountain around.  There is still quite a bit of snow at the top.

The Kootenai River, which is high due to all of the rain that Libby has received this year and the snow melting off of the mountains.

Here in Montana there are small casinos at almost every corner as well as in gas stations.  The casinos consist of slot machines, but the slot machines are different from the ones in any of the casinos that Corey and I have been to, there are choices for which game to play at each machine, Keno, Line Play or Video Poker.  There are no table games and only 2 of the casinos in the town have 1 poker table each, but the bad news is that they only have poker games during the winter time.

Libby, MT is called The City of Eagles because you can spot eagles swooping into the Kootenai River and catching fish.  I can't wait to see an eagle myself.  There are big eagles all around the city like this one in this picture.

 How beautiful is this?  The sun is coming through the clouds onto the mountains.
