What a day! Spit of rain when we left this morning and that was it. Cool enough for liners for the first tank then really got serious about warming up! Montana was 93 in the areas we drove in, real nice.

 

We get to camp! Set up behind the Best Western in Shelby Mt.

 

What a great ride through the mountains. 454 miles today. Be at the reunion tomorrow in the afternoon.

 

ALRIGHT Big Guy!! Now we are talking :cool10::cool10::cool10: I can smell, feel and taste that gorgeous Montana Mountain air brother!! You guys are making good time!!

Hmmmm,, camping behind a Best Western,, wonder if your spot comes with a Continental Breakfast:080402gudl_prv:

Wishing you two a safe and fun ride to your reunion!!

Well we had a good day today visiting kin I haven't seen for literally 40 years! We got a ride out to the ranch with our niece ,good thing we didn't decide to ride in there as the final 2 miles is gravel and mud!

 

My bride has left me! Marilyn got away about 3 pm ( an hour later than she wanted). She forgot her jacket with her bike key at the ranch!

 

Just waiting to here from her as to how far she went today.

 

One more day and then I will begin the final leg of the journey.:bighug:

Well the journey is over for Marilyn! She reported getting home about a half hour ago. She just sent message to me that she is holding grandson and had to go! Guess I am back to being puffed wheat again lol.

 

Stats for Marilyn are over 6000 miles, 21 states and three provinces. I am leaving in the morning and heading for Pete's place. Some may remember Pete from PIP. Going to spend the night there and head home Tuesday u less he talks me into another night!

Be aware of Pete he may want to talk you into having a sip of tequila, If he takes the cap off and throws it over his shoulder, grab the grass so you don't fall off. :rotf::rotf::rotf:

 

Hope he makes it to the PIP.

Great ride today got away at 1030! Couple old girls were camping across from me and insisted I join them for a beer last night. Well this morning as I was packing up they called over so I would join them for breakfast! These old gals get their hubbies to set up camp for them then they shoo away the boys and camp all week! Youngest was 68 and oldest 83! Neat ladies.

 

Anyway I have been at Pete and Hazels since 545 , fed and watered now just kicking back.

 

Last day tomorrow!
