Sept 16, 2008-
I just crashed last nite-could not type a single word!! Six days on the road makes a puppy weary!! Carol fed me a hamburger patty the other day and I just have no will power when it comes to dead cow!! but it just wrecks havoc with my skin!!! other than all the strange bugs, and weeds that are devouring me I have had a really good time.
As we headed out of Wyoming yesterday, we came upon the Little Bighorn battleground-I was amazed to hear Barney say how many white guys were killed by the very Indians that they were trying to kill. Seemed like there was enough land around there for all of them to live quite comfortably to me-humans!! they just don't get it!!! The horses that roam there have all got the right idea-running free, staying content and keeping it simple!!
We drove on to Billings and the scenery just got more beautiful-BIG SKY is what they advertise and BIG it is-saw eagle nests on telephone poles-but no eagles.
As the terrain started changing to more mountains, the Kia didn't give in-it just zoomed up every one and flew down the other side (I like this part, because Carol always throws up her hands like she is on a roller coaster and then covers her eyes). When you are traveling west, the sun stays in your eyes alot, but Carol puts a pillow in front of my crate so i won't be bothered but it sure drives them crazy, especially with a million little bugs all spread over the windshield.
Well, guess it is time for breakfast-I've insisted on chicken breast from Subway, nothing else will do since I have to put up with all this car time but other than hot pork rinds (that I DON'T get to have) we all are eating at Subway every day.
Nathan called and said the pass in Idaho is just incredible but look out for all the bighorn sheep-I like mutton, especially their wonderful aroma! -lookin' forward to that!
Later, dear friends-
will write from Washington tonight!!
