I neglected to mention a few weird things from our trip. Here’s a list:
- These construction vehicles parked along with other cars in visitor parking spaces.
- We saw a dead beaver in the middle of the road up by Big Sky. Why would a beaver cross the road?
- I’ve seen watch for livestock or deer crossing signs before, but never a bighorn sheep crossing sign. I kept my eyes peeled, but I didn’t see any sheep. I would have liked to.
- We were behind this big F 150 on the way to Bozeman. Why would you buy one in New York and drive it out West? Just ‘pick-up’ one when you get here.
- There were only 2 or 3 exits in Bozeman, but as we were leaving town, we couldn’t find a gas station to save our lives. We drove from the U of M campus out to the middle exit, through all kinds of shopping centers, including a Costco, but couldn’t see a gas station. Finally on the far side of the exit there was a little mini-mart with pumps. This is a business opportunity for somebody.
- In a ranch outside of Livingston, Montana, we saw a pasture full of llamas. I’ve see farms where a few are living. They’re a nice hobby or FFA project. There must have been 75-100 of them in this field. It made me happy. They (along with quail) always make me think of Dr. Suess characters.
