He spend time in Indonesia, Zambia and a variety of other international locations, helping develop mines. He opted to spend a portion of his retirement time running a campground and bought his very own April 16th this year. It seems like he said by the 28th, the majority of the campground was flooded. It was interesting chatting with him and trust his business will flourish!
Once the crew arose from their beauty rest, we shoved off for parts unknown. Initially, it seemed like Billings would be a reasonable destination for the evening. (I digress, but those who sleep the mornings away, force me to drive in the dark.....)
Flooding was a major reality along I-90. Most of the water we passed was outside its banks or at least flowing rapidly.
Lunch was at a random Wendy's in west Montana, but dinner could not be more fast food. We found an Outback in Bozeman and had a healthier dinner.
I-90 was under construction in many places and proved to be an adventure throughout the day. For some reason, as we were dining in Bozeman, I felt possessed to travel east of Billings for the night and Hardin was our target. I was racing against the sunlight and got most of the way there before darkness ruled. At the darkest moment, just a few miles west of Hardin, some of the craziest construction of the day, east of Billings, nearly brought me to a standstill. It was difficult to determine exactly where the road was and where the construction was....but I kept plodding forward.
We landed in Hardin around 11.30pm local time.....needless to say....we were all ready to park the rig and get some sleep!
