On the Road to Montana

Fri 02 - Missoula

The air mattress is a problem that must be dealt with soon. It definitely caused sleeplessness last night. The chilly temps did, too. It was in the 30s when we woke this morning. We started breaking down camp with our coffee, and I put a pot of steel cut oats on the stove. The teens woke to a nice breakfast and we packed up the car. It was a beautiful ride out of Yellowstone Nat'l Park, and became increasingly more beautiful as we travelled into Montana. It was about a six hour ride to Missoula, where we booked a two bedroom, two bathroom hotel suite after eight nights of camping. The Staybridge was perfect. Even Solo had his own bed. Bill scouted out a Jiffy Lube-type place and got the car's first oil change. A car wash, too. We had a nice pasta dinner at a little Italian joint, and went back to our TVs and wireless worlds. We all slept very well in the comfy beds.
