Billings - City Brew
Nothing like hanging out with old friends and sipping coffee at the local shoppe. The weather is perfect - crazy rain yesterday (which we haven't seen in AGES). The kids have friends to play with and we have some good fellowship.
Off to Flathead valley tonight.
Julie - I always thought you were crazy, driving through the night with your kiddos. However, we have now been seasoned and understand. The first night we slept in Douglass ... more like we laid in our beds, trying to sleep. $60 later and we were on the road at 6am... incredibly tired! So, tonight we're going to drive it straight through. We figure it can't be any worse - kids sleeping or maybe not in the car on the road. Better than flushing money down the 'ole toilet ... and no one is any more rested than when we arrived.
So - 8 hours of road time await us. And a good night sleep in the car??? Will see how it goes.

I'll pray for you! At the ages your kids are it really is anybody's guess which is worse, trying to catch some shut eye while your spouse is hopefully staying awake, or being incredibly frustrated laying a hotel listening to your kids stir being sure they will awaken any moment. I hope your drive went well.
we decided to sleep in Butte after all ... and the kids slept from 10pm to 8am - it turned out to be a good choice! =) In Lakeside now. Having a GREAT time!!!
It's fun to track your trip this way!! I'm thinking of you and praying for you.
Thanks for the update! Been wondering how things were going. I look forward to talking to you when you get back, but thanks for keeping us in the loop.
Enjoy your time away. Eat it up!!
