Fun in Montana

Montana events:
-We had lunch at Costco - free samples are very filling for weary travelers
-We saw a truck carrying a deer or two back from a day of hunting (maybe they finally got Bambi?)
-We ran out of gas
-We crossed the continental divide
-We lost 5th gear for a while... but it came back
-We visited two of Montana's estimated three Starbucks.

Montana is a very long state and it takes a while to get across it. So the little diversions listed above were appreciated. As for the gas situation, I may have encouraged steching our tank of gas, but I was NOT driving when we came to a puttering stop. I will not, however, learn my lesson as it almost took us a whole 5 minutes to borrow some gas, fill the tank, and return our borrowed gas to Jeff, the kind Montana-ian.

Well, we are about to head into the pan-handle of Idaho... I will try to keep you posted on potato sightings and the such.
