Day 2

I have been plagued with computer issues since I started this trip, which really pissed me off.

Day 2 I traveled from Missoula Montana to Sheridan Wyoming. The highlight of the day was a stop at the Custer Battlefield near The Little Big Horn river in south east Montana. It was pretty impressive to me for a few reasons. For those who have never been there, markers have been placed where each man died. Having been in battle it was easy to visualize the organized chaos that must have ensued. You could almost hear the sounds and smell the smells of the battlefield.
I took a lot of pictures and hopefully I can attach a few to this.

As I was riding along in Montana I couldn't help but think of how blue and spacious the sky is when you get away from cities. As I traveled though Washington I had seen acre upon acre of amber waves of grain (wheat). Then though Idaho I had seen the purple mountain's majesty. And as I passed by the Bozeman airport I think I saw a fruited plane.(Gay friends and family members..I love you all and I'm just kidding).

I took some pictures of a white statue high on a mountain overlooking billings. It is a giant statue of The Lady of the Rockies. At the Harley shop they told me that you can't get up to it and that it was hauled up to it's base by a army helicopter.

I learned two this on the ride on day 2. Highway pegs are great. It lets you move around and get circulation to your legs. The other thing I learned was that it is a good idea to leave the back of your sleeveless shirt untucked so you don't trap all of the bugs inside!

Day three and four will be posted tomorrow. I'm actually in Sioux Falls South Dakota writing this at one in the morning for reasons I will divulge in the day 4 chronicle.
