This was by far the hardest and craziest day

I have to preface this blog by saying I am very tired right now and may start to ramble.
Started the day cloudy and dreary in Lincoln hoping to get to Simms, about 55 miles. Started on a continued climb to roger's pass and the continental divide. Just moving along and got to the pass, not too bad we thought. Silly us. We then had a great 7 mile decent which was beautiful and insane. So we thought we were going to have a nice glide into Simms. Oh no. Big downhills followed by huge uphills. Repeat this by 10 times. It was EPIC!!!! so anyway we get to Simms. One gas station/rv park and one sketchy tavern/restaurant, which we ate at. I was so hungry I could have eaten shoe leather. In fact I think I did.
So I thought I was doing pretty good so far on this trip. But now I have my doubts. We were sitting in the restaurant and this old lady walks up to me and asks me if I am getting chemo.
I must look like shit. Just had my warm hat on. Pretty funny, girly and I
had a good laugh after she left. Still laughing now.
We pitched our tent behind the one and only gas station in Simms and are being kept company by a nice black lab called sam.
Tomorrow off to great falls, 30 miles.
Then restock food and candy for the rest of the trek across Montana. There is nothing out here but cattle and horses.
Girly will be posting the pics.
