Getting a bit late start today, nice folks keep talking to us and taking up a hefty portion of our morning. That's what it's all about though, we don't want to just blow through, that's the beauty of traveling like this. We got dumped on with lightning storms last night in the park, I read to the children until I couldn't be heard any more over the thunder. We hope to make it to Riggins, at least today and maybe take it easy for my B-Day. I hear Riggins is charming and the places from here to Montana are incredible places to see. We look forward to seeing it all, even though we have some dicey roadways ahead with no shoulder, luckily it's all downhill till Riggins. We really should go, why is it so hard?

Jelena,
ReplyDeleteIt was great to talk to you on the phone today! I am really encouraged by your blogs. Makes me want to be out there with you guys.
Oh, there will be a box at the main Post Office in Missoula when you get there. You'll find it in general delivery on Kent Street (Avenue?). We will give you the address and phone number when you get closer.
Love, Stef
Hey Steen Family,
ReplyDeleteWe are in Great Falls, MT. So glad to see things are still going well for you. We are having a great ride even though the weather is not very cooperative. We are staying the night here because of severe thunder storms. Hopefully tomorrow we can head north to Havre and get on track with the Northern Tier. We miss you guys, big hugs to everyone.
Love ya, Shanna and John (tandem people)
Happy Birthday!!
