MTN bike ride



Hey all look what we did the other day. This is a short 20-30 min ride from our front doorstep! I'm still getting used to the mountain bike. Luckily there is a nice wide path that we can take way back into the wilderness area. Erik's idea is that one weekend this summer we will load our backpacks, ride the bikes up to the wilderness area and then set off on a 2-3 day backpacking trip. Sounds like fun!
We've also been hiking and running around town, no pics. It's still cold and rainy alot here so we haven't ventured out to do any camping yet, maybe this coming weekend.

Thanks for posting your comments on life in Missoula. We live in So. California and have been trying to relocate to Missoula for the last several months - but have had trouble finding executive level job listings in the area.

We have visited twice in the last three years and have fallen in love with the area, and would love to move our family (3 young kids - 11, 9, and 7) out of the So. Calif. Rat Race.

I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on life in Missoula. Just based upon your comments on your blog, it looks like you love it. What were the biggest adjustments you had to make? Were the people friendly to "outsiders"? Did you find the standard of living higher or lower than Minn.?

Just a few questions ;) - would love to hear back from you. My user name is my email address, so please feel free to email if that is easier than responding on your blog.

Thanks,

Joe & Cathy Beaver
