Yup - although it wasn't open all the way over to the east as the Indians don't want sick people coming on the reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Today we left Kalispell, Montana and headed for Pullman, Washington. Loads of rolling hills and rivers in the valleys. We railed along around 80 mph for most of the day and had a great ride... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Lower temps today made for perfect weather. I opted out of the Huck Sauce at the truck stop... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 The cool thing about riding through small towns is all of the weird shit you see. Like this display of an old bus, a Cadillac and some rocket ship ride... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bus predates my knowledge of vehicles, but I';d assume it probably was as I;m not aware of any other buslines back then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had no signage on the outside so I couldn't tell if it was a business or just some guys random collecting of shit. Wandering into buildings in small towns like this is a good way to get yourself shot. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're jealous. that's USS Hawkbill I think, famous as the devils submarine. pedantic mode "ON" technically it's a "sail" , not a conning tower... Pedantic mode "OFF" nice pics 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedantic mode "OFF" nice pics I tried. I really did. Anyway, it's located in Arco, ID where they used to - or maybe still do - make the nuke propulsion systems for subs.

Earache Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 Rode ajust over 400 miles today from Pullman, Washington to Great Falls, Montana... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 The straight kline on tghe above pic is where the phone lost signal. But that area was 120 mikles of nothing but curves and smooth, void of traffic road. Best ride I've had in years. We railerd along at a steady 80 mph through there. I didn't take a lot of pics as I was just into the ride too much... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
