Mark's In And Out Drive In Livingston, MT
Travel is a wonderful thing.
You get to experience new places and people.
You can return to the special places you discovered before.
Or you return to places where you came from...like Montana.
Of course, places change over time, and Montana is no exception.
Except for my home town of Livingston. It seems to be stuck in a time warp from say, the 1800's? Well, maybe not THAT bad, but much of remains like it did when I left back in the early 80's.
My trips home are usually pretty quiet. I spend a good deal of time at Mom's kitchen table, right here on the Internet, working on blogs, getting a signed contract (yeah!) and almost being bored at the much slower pace of life here out West!
But today, I had a plesant surprise while we were running some morning errands.
Mark's In and Out Drive In. A welcome step back in time....indeed.
Mark's In and Out IS an original 50's drive in located on Park Street in Livingston. They use local beef and make milk shakes from Livingston's own Wilcoxson's ice cream. (If you've had Blue Bell, I think you have NOT tasted ice cream yet....) They are open from March-October.
We decided to stop here for a quick bite of lunch. And it was drive-in food...done GOOD!
My Bacon Mushroom Swiss Burger was not huge ( I opted for the single burger version) but along with the extra crunchy Tater Tots and a sample of Mom's awesome Onion Rings, it was more than enough for a lunch time meal.
If your travel plans (especially driving) bring you to Montana, say for a visit to Yellowstone National Park (the North Entrance is located 50 miles South of Livingston) be sure to make a roadside stop to Mark's In and Out Drive In. It's easy to get to off of I-90 and you'll be glad you took this step back in time.
