Broke camp at 10:00, going interstate. Big trucks and campers, ranches, cows and horses, hills, mountains in the background, ravines, gullies, pronghorn. First glimpse of snow covered mountains in distance. Trying to make time so we could get there by Monday. We left Cheyenne and made it to Montana. It just does something to my soul – there’s a look, a feeling, a way of life like no where else, except Wyoming is pretty close. It feels like home. The temperatures are still hot during the day but cool off nicely in the evening. We went through a thunderstorm with lightning going vertical across the sky. The people we’ve met have talked about the past years drought and are thankful for the rain. One lady told me this was the greenest she had ever seen southern Montana in many years. Made it on to Billings. We are at the KOA in Big Timber. This is the area where parts of The Horse Whisperer was filmed. Not much in the town. We went to the Prairie Dog Town State Park on the other side of the interstate. All there was was a short little drive through the prairie dog town; no camping. Oh well, I got to play at calling the prairie dogs out of their holes. We’ll go through Bozeman, Butte, Anaconda, and hopefully Missoula tomorrow. Off to closer to Bigfork in the morning.
