July 10, 2008 – departure

We have not been setting an alarm most days, because one of us is usually awake pretty early. So we didn’t worry about it last night, thinking we’d get up and get going without it. So this was the first day that we both slept in. In spite of that we got going in pretty good time. The car was about half loaded last night so we just had a little bit of packing and loading to finish up today.

BB took us around the south end of Glacier National Park and out onto the Montana prairie. It was a nice drive through rolling hills that I assume are glacial moraine. The route she chose included only a little Interstate. Mostly we were on 2-land highways through grazing and farm land. The speed limits are pretty high in Montana. Wife proved that the Escape will do 90 when passing and seemed to have plenty more.

We are just hanging out in Billings tonight, ready to hit the road again tomorrow.
