Coming home from Canada Day 9






Today we ran into rough weather. The stretch of mountainous highway from Spokane, Washington to Billings, Montana got trickey. We had a lot of rain, and a fair amount of snow. It was beautiful! Today was also a 525 mile day so we could get closer to Sturgis faster (we want to spend a day in that area). When we got down to a rest area, we saw this guy on his Harley that had just caame the same way. He was low on gas and food, and headed back home to Alabama. I gave him $20.00 and wished him well. Isuggested he go south quickly. He didn't even have a windshield on his bike, and it was about 40 degrees in the dry sun! Nickie made us a nice BBQ chicken dinner when we got settled into our camp site. I pray that our Alabama friend found a warm place to hold up.
