After leaving our old stomping grounds in Bozeman, it was time to make our way to visit my family and where I grew up in Butte and Fairmont. As luck would have it, our sweet niece Joey was celebrating her 2nd birthday while we
While we were visiting Fairmont we took the kids fishing at the same pond I grew up fishing in.
