La Quinta Inn And Suites Billings

I have picked up some kind of tropical disease, because that's what happens to adventurers - just ask Indiana Jones. It's a very clever disease. it's disguising itself as a common cold, but with a slight twist; and here's the masterstroke - I have a very painful earache with it. I have tried getting whatever's hurting in there out with a stick that i found on the ground but that just made it worse. See, I told you it ...

The Hampton was nice, new and comfortable. We woke this morning, enjoyed the hotel breakfast. We organized our bags and cleaned out the car; tossed out our cooler, food, drinks and utensils then headed for the airport. Billings is another extremely small airport. It was easy to park the rental car and walk to the gate. <br><br>Let the all day journey home begin....<br><br>We're delayed to Denver, 20 minutes.<br>

... was a nice small airport<br>and it took no time to find my bag. <br><br><br><br><br>Having never met Bart before, and being<br>a bit too sleep depraved at this point to fully recall his facebook<br>profile pic, I did the only thing possible: look at all the men<br>waiting with a quizzical expression and hope one would return it.<br>Nope. Just some equally puzzled 'stop-staring-at-me' looks, and one<br>that might have ...

We traveled to billings , because we wanted to get new tires on the truck, the little wear indicators were almost smowing so we thought it would be best to be safe  rather than sorry. Because Montana doesnt have any sales tax , its a good state to make big purchases. We researched on the net and it appears that  Costco is ...

... was exhausted from all the events so by the time a man had a siezure on board 3 hours later, it was completely unsuprising and I was completely unfazed!<br><br>The only thing scaring me now is that I still have another 4 Greyhound bus journeys to go! Oh take me back to Brazil where they stroke you and feed you Cachaca, not torture you by verballly abusing children!<br><br>What could possibly happen next I wonder!.. actually, you know what, no I dont !<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>

... which is the first KOA and probably one of the best. It sits among towering pine trees along the Yellowstone River. The lawns are lush and flowers are present on most sites. We're here for only one night because Danny has found a way for us to go to Yellowstone National Park that won't be too far out of our way from our original destination of Banff. Helen has never been to Yellowstone but has always wanted to see it so tomorrow we head further west.

... quite pleased with myself.  It was a busy road and there were no bushes for cover so I improvised and overcame, and managed to pee in a handy tupperware I had handy - all I could think about while I was waiting for the AAA was how relieved I was that I didn't need the loo anymore! A State Trooper pulled up to check we were OK and the tow truck only took 45 mins or so.  Adam from Agave Towing was also a driver in one of the lower ...

... from the Indian Wars. We spent our afternoon walking through the Battle of the Rosebud, where a band of Lakota led by Crazy Horse surprised General Crook. While I had trouble following the hour-by-hour movements, the 1+ mile walk in brilliant sun to the top of the ridge gave us a 360 degree view with no man-made structures for about 50 miles. The very few homes and ranches are lost from site in valleys, so what we ...

... 10am to 8pm to get here with just two stops driving 401 miles. But the driving is easy. only problem we had was would we have enough petrol to get to the next service station after we'd joined the 212 from Devil's Tower. There is nothing out here but range - no vehicles, no houses, no towns. Just a straight road. We found one about 60 miles along the road in a 5 house town, but it was a close run thing. We're not used to ...

I backtracked somewhat to I90 and headed north into Montana, my 39th state, first stop being the Custer Battlefield National Monument. It was fixed up rather nicely and had nice views. There was a small national military cemetery there where I might be able to be buried since I was in the army. It did seem to have a number of Vietnam war dead there.<br> I guess that was appropriate-to bury the dead from a misbegotten war at the site of one of the worst military ...
