I have to be honest; Andy and I have no idea what day it is. The cool weather and added hours of light are totally throwing us off; amongst other things. I feel like I am 80 years old talking about the great weather but, I really do want/need to brag. I have not seen the temp in our truck go over 80 since we left St. Louis.
Okay, to refresh my memory I last left "y'all" after our wonderful day of eye candy (The Corn Palace, The Badlands, The President's and the Prarie Dogs). The next day (Wed) we drove from Rapid City, SD to Bozeman, MT. If any of you have any inner hippie in you, you have heard of Bozeman, MT.
Back to the drive. Yesterday reminded me of the song that goes something like, "where the dear and the antelope plaaaay." I have never seen so many antelope in all the years I have lived.
We were lucky enough to come upon Crow Native Days in Crow Agency, MT. Established in 1990 to promote and provide the Apsaalooke youth w/ Drug and Alcohol Free activites. The highlight is the Ultimate Warrior Challenge, a foot race, canoeing and a relay horse race. After I obtained the pamplet, that I am getting my info from, I realized we witnessed the Horse relay race. It really was cool! Another thing I am reading from the pamphlet is the Vice-Chairman's name is Calvin Coolidge Jefferson; you should see his head dress. (Damn, I wish I had a color scanner like the one I had when I was employeed at Shapiro)!!!!
Bozeman is a great town in the Summer and I hear a great ski town in the Winter. I have to give a big shout out to MacKenzie River Pizza Co for their great pizza and beer. It reminds me a lot of the south where everyone says hello and if you ask for directions or a suggestion of a place to eat; it is a 5 minute conversation (or maybe it's just that I wanted to talk)
I am hoping that Kodiak is a lot like Bozeman after all a native of Kodaik told me that it is "Just like Key West but, with colder weather"
