2 RV's heading to Bozeman MT

... spending the night at Bozeman MT

Breakfast? Hot food was biscuits and gravy so we settle for yogurt.

Pulled out at 7:30 local.

1st stop was across the freeway at the Flying J for fuel. Cheaper here than any place beyond here. While we were there another RV pulled in, likely the one we had seen yesterday. It is not from the 'our company' but is built on the same chassis. My fuel pump wouldn't work so I had to move which took time. So I didn't waste anymore time talking to anyone ... today.

2nd stop was the Port of Entry in Sundance. I get a park arrow and BB follows me even tho they had changed her arrow. (Kind of like following someone through a signal light ... just because it was green for the person ahead of you ??)

3rd stop was the Maverik in Gillette for fuel, we have been stopping another block down but there we have to use out-houses so today indoor plumbing wins. First pump I stop at the chip reader is out of order so we have to 'tap.' That doesn't work either so I have to move to another pump. The second will take my credit card but not my rewards card, lost out on $.24. BB is done and ready to roll by the time I am done fueling.

SNOW - And this is not the incoming storm. The temps stay between 28 and 32 the next two hours. Some places the road is covered with slush but mostly just wet. One short stretch of snow covered. The variable speed limit were showing 55 mph instead of 80 mph so I am guessing things had been worse.

4th stop is the Arby's in Sheridan for food.

5th stop is in Sheridan for the Port of Entry.

6th stop is the Loves in Hardin for fuel. Again, cheaper than anywhere beyond. We guess as to how much we will need now that we are 100 <> miles from our drop.

7th stop is at the Town Pump/Pilot for more fuel. We guessed wrong.

BB had thought she had put in way too much fuel at Hardin, now she is adding more. Before we are half way to Belgrade I loose her. I finally pull off at an exit when I have slowed and she does not catch up. She does catch up and she has slowed because she thinks she may not make it at 65 mph. Her RV is spending a lot of time tac'ing out at 4,000 RPMs, I don't know if I have hit 3,000 this whole trip.

8th and final stop is the Quality Inn in Belgrade. Food is the Mexican place next door. Since we were here last, there is now a Wendy's on the other side of the hotel.

Too much food, hope I can sleep.

Here we are 3 miles from the airport and that makes it 12 miles to the drop. I have a range of 31 miles. Not sure if I will add a few more ounces of fuel or not.

Tomorrow we will head out at 10 AM heading home after our drop. It sounds like the storm will be right behind us so we will get as far as we can stay awake tomorrow.
