Montana + Travel
= Exhaustion
This weekend I
drove to Libby, the place I spent my high school years. Well, I spent other years and summers there
as well. My family comes from the area. I love the mountains, rivers, and lakes. Exhaustion does hit, due to the very long
drive. On a good day with no breaks, I
could get there in four and a half hours.
However, my truck always needs more gas, and I need bathroom and stretch
breaks. The trip usually takes five
hours. Coming home, my sister and I
traveled together. I followed her to
Missoula. We stopped for our last meal
together. This added another hour. I will say though that we lucked out. Traveling in the fall through spring, the
trip can take a much longer amount of time because of road conditions. We only hit a bad fifteen mile stretch north
of Missoula where we went our separate ways.
I slowed down on the snow covered pass which takes me down into
Helena. But all in all, the drive went
well. I am tired this morning.
