... clever.

If anyone knows of this disease, please can you let me know the cure. But please, please bear in mind that i think we are talking hours rather than days. As I write this, I grow weak. I'm not long for this world.


Thought of the Day

I must go in, the fog is rising.

For reference

I still have so much to give.
I hope men will say of me that I did duty by my country.

... JAH hiked a little further. The trail was amazing! The water was rushing from the snow melt up in the Beartooth Mountains that we were in the foot of. When we were done climbing we hiked about 2 more miles and tripp and JAh jumped into the water, which was freezing cold. I wish I could have taken a picture of tripp's face when he came shooting back out of the water. I got some good climbing pics and one of tripp when he was fresh out of the water. THe land out here is ...

When we got up at Leah and Dogan's house there was coffee already made. I got up earlier than Tripp and JAH and drank a few cups and talked with leah for a while. When we all got up and moving Leah made us lunch and we hit the road. 5t only took us about 45 min. to get to columbus and when we arrived we went to go see boo at work. After talking with her a while about things that we want to do ...

... up to the top of a mountain. They have tons of scenic overlook stops, it's absolutely gorgeous and amazing! About an hour ago we drove through Red Lodge, a very cool little town on 212. I would very HIGHLY recommend taking this to route to anyone driving from Billings area to Yellowstone...I'm sure other routes are pretty, but this is breathtaking. God it smells great out here!!

... what? Are you a lawyer?" to which he replied, "That's exactly what I am." Anyway, the knife worked beautifully and I put the damaged part into the car and was on my way.

I stopped by the dealership in Billings but they didn't have a replacement in stock. So now, I'm going to call the dealership in Helena and have them order one for me that I can pick up next week. Until then, I need to stay on paved roads.

From my friend, Adam, this truly fun website: Ten Best Ghost Photographs Ever! Well, I guess we are leaving today. Not good fishing, so no reason to stay. We'll go look for my waders and survey the fire damage, and then head out... Really strange incident last night. Keep in mind I spent all day in the trailer, most of it with no radio on, so if this had happened earlier in the day, I think I would have heard it, but I didn't. Shortly after ...

... frequently. It makes me feel better about myself ;-) So, am I going fishing? HELL NO! If not wanting to get in the water in these conditions makes me "not a fisherman" than so be it. I was all excited to go fishing on this trip! I wanted to try streams and rivers along the way, but nooooooooooo - the only good fishing is in Montana. So, we had to wait until we got to Montana, and now it's frigid cold... On a logistical note, my waders are (hopefully) at Robert's cabin ...

... trace out a good deal of the edge of the caldera and were able to see Yellowstone Lake. When we completed our hike, we started for our campsite. Soon it began to rain heavily and traffic snarled. Then a bright strike of lightning followed by a loud, boom of thunder confirmed that we were traveling in a thunderstorm. Mr. Troy decided that due to inclement weather we would be unable to make dinner in these conditions. So we went to a Cafeteria containing a variety of ...

... were flagged down by a couple of bikers who were from Texas and asked us for some tools and jumper cables for their dying Harley (1,500 mile ride w/o a toolkit? Rookies). That was the first and only time we were acknowledged by a biker in our two days there, although Chris felt as if he had bonded with the biker community. Aug 9 (Day 100) Keystone, SD We headed out early to Mt. Rushmore, and our location in Keystone made it very easy as it was a 5 minute drive from our ...

... down the road again about 2:30 I headed south on 89 towards Yellowstone which I was hoping to see tomorrow. I reached Gardiner but turned around and retrace my path back along the Yellowstone River until I found a good stopping place. I had additional car stuff to do. I took my tape player apart and cleaned the sprockets, then I fooled around with the antenna, which I kept hidden so it wouldn't look like a had a stereo. The ...
