We decided to take a ride to Phillipsburg to see their painted buildings that won a finalist position in a paint company's contest for beatutiful places in America. They had a "Main Street" with many ornate Victorian-style buildings, painted in great detail. Unfortunately the buildings lacked stores or restaurants that really held our attention. After ice cream, we looked around the rest of town, saw the beautiful view of the mountains
from above "Main Street" and went off in search of wildlife promised in the tourist articles. We discovered Montana's method for disposing of junk cars and found one of their many ghost towns. The Southern Cross was a goldmine until 1919. There are still five buildings there. Of all the animals we were supposed to see only a skunk and a couple of ground squirrels showed their faces.
