Clarkston


I made it through the Lolo pass last night. I wanted to stop an fish in the river along the way but I wimped out. I rolled into Clarkston last night. A nice lady at the Best Western let me park in their lot.

I feel at home now because I ran into my friends formerly from Gillette. The Dwyers. They just took me to TacoTime and now were hanging at their place.

This is the 'check point' for the trip. I'm going to do some thinking about planning for the rest of the trip here. But Kyle was right I need to get to Portland and quit working so much right now.

I might head out soon.

Missoula



I went for a hike up the M hill at the University of Montana this morning. I parked at Wal-Mart last night; today I figured I'd hang out at the campus and explore Missoula scooter style. Oh yes I forgot to tell you about the new words I learned from my cool friends in Bozeman. If something is cool it's sick or dope and it's not cool to say shucks. I just I found out how uncool I am. Oh well. You must have to be into extreme skiing and ride BMX to understand.
I'm enjoying this blogging thing. It's great hear from you!

Bozeman

Well I've got it a little farther than Billings. I met some neat people here in Bozeman. I will refrain from talking about Billings. But Bozeman is kind of cool. How come nobody told me about this place? They say that it's a prestigious town and it's booming even more than Gillette! I'm working hard, way harder than I did in Gillette. I cleaned horse stalls (easy), and picked up irrigation pipe (harder) in Billings, ew Billings... and today and tomorrow was and will be roofing (hardest). But the guys I work for are some young business owners and they are pretty cool, at least they try to fit that part, the 'cool' kids. They are somewhat like me I guess. They like to travel and they have done a lot of it.
The motor home is running good. My fridge quit, so it's all fresh food from here on out! (Not really they just took me out to eat some deep fat fried chicken. I did have a salad though!) Thanks for keeping in touch everyone! And for those who haven't well...I forgive you.

Billings


Downtown Billings! Made it to my first stop. It sure is nice not being in a hurry.

On my way!

Just a quick note to let you know that I'm lllllleaving Gillette! I'll be on the interstate in less that 10 minutes.

I was able to find someone to keep my pickup until I found a buyer! WOW THANKS A TON!

Thanks for all your support and your comments.

Saturday Night Live!


Well I'm seeing that things don't always work out as you would like and/or as you planned. I think I ran into some scammers on craigslist saying that they want to buy my pickup and that they will send me a check. But I think that I'll wait a day longer and try to sell it locally. SO... I'll plan on leaving Monday instead. Who knows, maybe I'll stay in Gillette forever!






This picture speaks for itself.

This is when I cry out for help.



On my knees I come to you.

On my knees i bow.

i have nothing to bring to You

But You have given me everything.


Preparing or Preface


Reality seems to set in in waves. I must live in a make believe world for the most part. Friends bring me back sometimes, some movies, family, you know questions like, "What in the world am I doing!?!" come to mind.


Today is the day I sell my pick-up, clean the RV, and pull up the anchor. Tomorrow I plan on leaving after the church service.


It's good to know that I am loved and that God is in control.

This is the place I am for now.


I just finished my last day of work. Now I don't know what to do. I know that I do want to stay connected with friends, so I am making this blog for you to travel along with me.

I am hoping to take off this coming Sunday or Monday. Oh boy!
This is a good pic of my Mom and Dad whom I love dearly. Notice the waterslide in the background. This will be further explained in a future post, I'm sure. Ok not really.
