Lets face it, the bar is pretty low but I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised with the little slice of South Dakota I saw in my three days there. Rapid City had a good deal of public art. A well attended summer music night with 2 stages and blocked off streets. The music was family friendly, which is…

Smoke From A Distant Fire
This is long but I wrote it quickly. Minimal Editing at this point. I thought I might be able to beat the tour busses and RV’s getting in before 10am but that wasn’t the case. Dragging the trailer behind me made it difficult to find a parking spot amongst the already crowded parking lots around the popular hot springs areas.…
In A Big Sky Country
I probably didn’t even scratch the surface but I think I covered a good bit of Montana’s mountainous western side. My opinion of it is mixed but mostly favorable. The people that I met were friendly and engaging but not in a “in your business” sort of way. Compared to Seattle, it is nice that people acknowledge your existence in…
Don’t take my kodachrome away
PS in advance. I typed this on my phone. I’ll fix any typos. Etc when I get to a proper computer. Those of you that have been following my travels over the years, know that I can be pretty verbose in blogging through them. This trip so far hasn’t been overly recorded. With a lack of internet, writing space and…
I Love to work at nothing all Day
So I was “stuck” in Whitefish, Montana for as few days while I get my bicycle situation sorted out. I must say I have had worse problems than having to find something to do in Whitefish. I realized that I had been gone 2 weeks already but according to google maps, I was still only a 10 hour drive from…
Up On The Roof
As I alluded to in the previous post, I made it over the Continental Divide and on to the surprisingly busy city of Missoula without anymore axle/wheel problems. It went so well that after a quick drive around the city without finding any campground that availability, I decided to press on after a relaxing beer at the Flathead Brewing Company.…
I’m On Fire
As a visitor, Salmon, Idaho is a nice place for fishing, rafting and 4 wheeling and just hanging around. None of which are on my bucket list. Sunset lighting on a Hay Field outside of Salmon Granted, my bucket list is pretty short. It currently has 0 things on it. Mostly because I pretty much do what I feel like…
Give me just a little more time
I know I promised a new post. But drive time, lack of a 120v outlet and limited internet have held me back from posting. A big storm that came though the WalMart parking lot last night prevented any sleep. I took advantage and wrote another post. So I have 2 in the hopper just waiting for one last proof read…
New Post being typed up this evening
Just a quick note that I haven’t forgotten about you . Internet coverage and 120 v plug availability is spotty. Plus I am in a really pretty part of the world. I have written up a couple posts and just need to type them in. Check back tomorrow.
Everything Falls Apart
It was a beautiful sunny summer Saturday afternoon so I didn’t have high hopes for a campsite in or nearby to Ketchum. At least near enough to take in some Saturday nightlife. The nearest I could find to Sun Valley was the North Fork campground, 8 miles North. A state patrol vehicle tailed me for a bit of the way…
