... away,my eggs are getting cold" look.I'm generally perfect as usual, but evidently, I can be grumpy and sarcastic.I don't see,however, what's wrong with wearing clothes two days in a row if you don't spill anything on them. My only problem is MY ASS HURTS! Honestly, we're having a ball.I'm going to try to send this before Linda sees it.

... definitely worth checking out.<br><br>We are now in a fancy dancy KOA campground in Missoula, where we were able to take a shower for the first time since we left. I smelled like roses the whole time, but Jess on the other hand, ( I just got punched), smelled lovely too.<br><br> Tomorrow were off to Bozeman, then Yellowstone.<br><br>See ya,<br><br>Nic and Jess<br><br>

... is the only way to travel and get the true taste and touch, of a new place. Plus, you save a lot of money on stuff that's not really important. Now, for you old folks, I know what your thinking. "Brandon, you're so easy to please." Well, you're right. But you could offer a couch to a stranger... The people you meet somewhere are what make a place special and couch surfers have turned out to be very special people.

... rancher who started painting so late in life. His art seems very genuine. You can tell he is painting just to express his ideas, not to make a buck or impress the art community. Many of his paintings seem to be about the destruction of the environment, but some are completely beyond me. Allison and I ended up buying a print of one of the paintings we really liked. I recommend checking out the website if you have time: http://www.ohrmannmuseum.com/ <br>Silas

We returned to the US after a long wait at a small town on the Montana boarder. We crossed back over the Continental Divide and headed to Missoula to meet Aili's friend, Lisa. We met her in town for dinner then headed out to her 20 acre ranch about a half an hour west of Missoula. We snaked up through a canyon following the Blackfoot River. Lisa lives in a nice ...

In a fit of patriotism (or just some reminder of childhood, when I could enjoy fireworks without knowing all the gruesome context of perchlorate contamination from the explosives and the executive branch being in the hands of big corporations) I thought about going - but who wants to ride five miles on a huge bicycle in the dark, alongside drivers stunned by ...

... stronger. It was work, but everyone who came through that camp now sees the possibility that living tribally and off the land can be. Daniel Quinn says people won't change if they feel they're giving something up, only if they feel they are getting something valuable. I hope my campers saw not only the possibility but the value of living the way we did. It wasn't perfect, but it worked. But I digress, you protest. The title is "tradeoffs." Ah yes. The problem is ...

... spliffs and random arguments and laughs!!! Then whisked away a brief 3 hour drive to Missoula, the hippiest palce in the North West (except maybe Seattle or Portland).
