Hey!
We're back from Yellowstone and man are our thumbs tired.
The park was sweet, I mean, as sweet as a place can be with so many tourists and that much markup. We took a day to hitch-hike around the park and see the sites, and another to hang out at the famous Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel and people watch. In case you're ever curious, the state who's capitol is represented incorrectly on the giant wood inlay map in the lounge of the hotel is Delaware.
I think next time we'll try and take a car to the park, though. It really is too big to see in a couple of days on bikes.
Anyway, we're back in Livingston now, and we're going to hit the pass into Bozeman tomorrow. It's supposed to be a cool town, so we're pretty excited.
So far, Montana is being really good to us. The scenery is beautiful, the roads are well paved, and the price is right. But who knows, maybe it's just the weather.
Well it looks like my time is up here, so we're off to find some cheap (or free) camping and some grub for the night, so take care y'all!

Happy Trails Kiddos. Bikes holding up? Legs too? Sunburn fading? Bears staying away?
Can't wait to see some new pix.
Love and smooches... Pop
It was fun meeting you all. Happy Trails along the way - and sorry about the fried chicken! Be safe, watch the interstate and slather on the sunscreen - it's hot out there!!
Tell me of that Treasure State
Story always new,
Tell of its beauties grand
And its hearts so true.
Mountains of sunset fire
The land I love the best
Let me grasp the hand of one
From out the golden West
Montana, Montana, Glory of the West
Of all the states from coast to coast, You're easily the best
Montana, Montana, Where skies are always blue
Montana, Montana I love you!
And you. And you, too :-)
okay songsters... Willys Allan Ramsey..
Seaching for the sunlight
On this winter's day.
Here in old Missoula,
They locked the sun away.
Come tomorow morning
I'll head for the Bozeman round
And it's goodbye to old Missoula, sleepy town.
T'was great to hear the voice of the Elly yesterday! Like Bornemannus said: Watch out on the interstate. Krazy that they let you ride up there, but I guess it's purty sparsely populated. If you had to drop in on Mr. Arms, I hope he was hospitable.
Moquitos are starting to bite here. I rekon that that is not an issue out there on the high plains. Yeah, we need some pictures, pictures of tanned and furry road-weather-beaten sojourners!
Oops! I was logged in as Wheels for Winners, so it looks like I'm Kim, but actually I'm Daddy Evans
Love the travelogue! Keep pedaling!

Herro Friends!
We got your postcards. So fun!
Your trip sounds awesome.
Your pictures are awesome.
You guys so awesome!
Have you seen The Long Way Round?
It's a documentary by Ewan McGregor (aka Obi-Wan Kenobi!) and his buddy Charley Boorman and their 20,000 mile motorbike trip from London all the way to New York! How exciting!
You two are quite the inspiration.
