Yeah, It’s Tour de Fleece Time Again

Auē.  Been ‘way too long since I’ve posted.  And I can’t blame it all on Tour de Fleece, either.  Because that started just a week ago.  And I left everyone in Montana!  Sheesh.

I’ll catch up with that, but in the meantime, here are my TdF collages for each day.

I’m not even a century old yet (good ting, yeah?)  K’den, virus of da past twenty years den. I can tell I’m getting better, but still stay congested lidat.  Killfight dis. But I digress.

Anyway, pau hana, I just kicked back and re-read all the posts from Da Mystery Road Trip Revealed that I did back in 2009.  All the way to Montana and back. Sometimes I crack myself up, reading what I wrote. I am so weird sometimes. But you know what?  It made for fun reading. So I think I should be more weird on this trip.  Oh wait. I was. I just haven’t been writing it so much. LOL.

Montana Road Trip 2010, Chapter Twenty-Eight

One thing I keep forgetting to mention about Montana is that before we go I need to buy stock in lip balm. Because I use it like crazy when we’re there. I never realized how much drier it is there.  Not a bad thing, just different.  I always have lip balm with me, and in the Rocky Mountains I used it copiously;; my lips always felt chapped. I’m sure if we lived there my body would get used to it, but the difference between there and here was very noticeable.

One thing I wish I’d known then, when we were traveling along I-90, or maybe hurtling along would be a better description…because the speed limit was 75 mph…is that there was a frontage road that we could have driven on instead.
