Everything indicated the hours they were open so we drove in from Shepherd and the place was closed up. Apparently out of business but no bother to update information.

When you find yourself in the middle of what seems like a never-ending road on the way to or from…read moresomewhere else, and you need a cola, or a touristy trinket, or some ice cream, pet food, bread, a hammer, or just a place to stretch your legs and walk, you might come across the Ole' Mercantile. This only looks like a tiny oasis, but walk in and you'll see several rooms full of things you might need for camping, fishing, road-tripping, hiking, and biking. You can spend a lot of time just browsing. It's one of those places with a little bit of everything - including friendly locals. Take a break from the road and explore. I recommend the flavored popcorn right near the register -- wow. I should have picked up two bags of that.

This family run business has very friendly workers that will give you recommendations on what's on the menu. The service isn't super fast so allot enough time if there's people in front of you. There was a large variety of items on the menu that you could order. Any of the ice cream flavors can be made into a milkshake. I had ordered the buffalo chip milkshake the first time I went. There are nuts in the ice cream and per worker notes, chocolate milkshakes tend to be thicker. Personally I didn't like the nuts in the milkshake but ordered a different milk shake the next time I visited. When I ordered a different flavor, the milkshake was noticeably less thick. You can add whip cream and a cherry on top.

Rock Creek soaps is a perfect shop for finding natural, hand-made soaps, candles, lotions and the…read morelike, all locally made. Because it's located in the warehouse area of downtown Billings, Rock Creek Soap can manufacture on the premises. That's an ideal way to keep costs down and pay attention to the craft. And that makes this a must-stop place. Although the current shelter-in-place rules keep Rock Creek from a fully operational stop-and-shop daily business, they are open one day a week currently, and the on-line ordering is always available. Being a visual learner, I like to see the product, inhale the scent, and, if there's a tester available, try it out. Since this tester option isn't available for obvious reasons during this current situation, I was able to see the product, and, if it was soap, could smell the main ingredients. One of the owners was able to explain the uses of certain ingredients and that was helpful. There are a mixture of bar soaps, swirled or stamped, boxed or not, and those with stamps, for instance of an animal, a marine animal, or a star, make for an interesting twist on a standard bar of soap. I couldn't really detect a connection between the stamp and the fragrance, but perhaps it's better that way. If shopping locally isn't enough, Rock Creek offers soapmaking classes, kids birthday parties, and lest the adults feel left out, a group party for adults to learn how to do their own product and then have fun on site practicing it. It's a fun shop with an entire selection of ready-made gifts or stocking stuffers.
