July 3-10
Idaho, Washington, Montana
- Ate breakfast at a downtown Missoula cafe/bakery called Bernice's. It's surprisingly hot (~90 degrees) for being in Montana.
- Went to the Smokejumper's Museum and took a tour around 11 AM. Check out the link to the museum - it's a pretty interesting place. This is where firefighters are trained/stationed for fighting forest fires that are pretty inaccessible. So they jump from aircraft into them. And you thought your job was tough.
- The real fun begins. Big Sky Brewery - took a tour, had some beer samples. Tasty. Their Moose Drool Ale is one of our favorites to this day.
- Bayern Brewery. Had samples and a pint. Very distinct background flavor in all of their varieties of ales...Not a favorite.
- Kettlehouse Brewery. Small, local brewery. Had at least 10 different beers to choose from. Had many samples and a couple pints. We are pretty drunk.
- Lunch follows around 4:30 pm, thank god, at a restaurant called the Iron Horse. Along with a pitcher of Mirror Pond. Too drunk to finish it. Went back to Katie's to nap (pass out) at 5:30. Woke up at 9 pm and decided to go to a bar. It's called Al and Vic's. As exciting as the name might suggest. Had one beer and paid cash (no tabs/cards) and left. Went to the Old Post bar - cool place, nice bartender. Lots of good local beers. Honky-tonk band playing. 7 beers = $18.
- Refueled today - $32
- Mileage 1050 total/30 today
