Big Western Circle Trip #2 – Part 7

Posted on 2023-08-302024-09-02 by Elle L

Day 27 – Anaconda to Livingston MT Our drive was wholly uneventful except for a recycling stop that made us go through a tunnel that was just barely big enough for the rig. I might have held my breath. After Bozeman, we drove by the Montana Grizzly Encounter. The billboards made it look kinda cool,…

Day 24 – Saint Regis to Anaconda MT Ugh at construction. And EFF YOU at some construction contractors putting the cones a few feet into our lane, leaving us no wiggle room for when the wind gusts. I hit four of them. I ran one completely over. Lots of others were down, too. And there…

Day 18 – Randle to Moses Lake WA, the hitchhiker Yet another beautiful drive! This time along the edge of the National Park and along a river with a very large lake. Per my request, we stopped at a wide spot in the road where the Pacific Crest Trail crosses the highway. We’ve both been…

Day 16 – Portland OR to Randle WA The drive was easy, short, and very pretty, but we had to pass up Mt. St. Helens due to a mud slide that closed the whole place. By the time we booked, we didn’t have any choices on our site, so of course we were in one…

Day 9 – change of plans, left Boardman early We were still on Stupid Other Time™ so we were up kinda early. Well, for us, really early. We hit that amazing breakfast (and it was great!), and were talking about what to do with too much time in Boardman. He called our next campsite and…

Day 5 – Snowville, UT to Boise, ID Our drive on a nicer stretch of highway made a big difference, but the wind was awful. As soon as we rolled into town, I declared the need for ice cream. Lovejoy ice cream shop made quick work of that request. I ordered a double scoop of…

Days 1-2 – Rawlins, WY Driving day We left a day earlier than originally planned for reasons. Just like last year, we saw a Miami Hurricane along our route. I wonder if it’s one of the ones we saw last year. We boondocked (with permission, of course) for two nights in a parking lot for…

Blue Voters only!

This personal blog is only for people smart enough to
vote blue. If you vote/think/feel conservative/libertarian, then you are not welcome here. This site has no room for the hate spewed by those bigoted groups and anyone who supports them. (Go read a book instead; it's clear that you rarely do. Better yet, go volunteer secularly with a truly impoverished community; learn some humanity.)
