On Saturday we drove about 13 or 14 hours to Great Falls,
Montana, the largest city south of Glacier National Park. We choose this city
as it was large and at about the maximum that I like to drive in one day. Much of this trip was across sections of
Montana where it’s just ranch land and nothing else. Really, really nothing!! We were off I-94 most of the time as this was
the most direct route for us. You could drive as fast as you wanted. I’d get
concerned that I’d not find anything so I’d buy gas at each town I found so
that I would not run out. In this section of the state, we could drive very
long stretches without seeing another car (actually truck, since everyone in
Montana drives a truck). We stayed in a Best Western Plus hotel that night as
we got into town very late and wanted to get going as fast as possible the next
morning.
