8-26-17 - (Day 26 - Going to the Sun Road)


It was a another gorgeous day for a ride.  It was a cool start, requiring layers of clothes, we puttered our way to the St. Mary entrance of Going to the Sun Road.

We were here in 2009, thought we have been there and done that; don't mind if we do it again.  We remembered why we loved this ride before, it is gorgeous. Even with the dry weather, the smoke from the wildfires, a lot less snow, no exciting animal sightings, and a whole lot more people.

The parking lot at Logan's Pass was full for passenger cars, the advantage of riding Amber, there was plenty of  motorcycle parking.  Our camping neighbors from Indiana pulled in, (in their truck), right after we parked and told us this isn't fair. LOL

We stopped for a picnic lunch on the banks of Avalanche Creek and motored on.  We took 2 East, weaving around the beautiful mountains and rivers and stopped at a few boondocking sites.  We started unlayering about half way home.  It really warmed up!

I didn't really need to wash clothes, but being the campground had a full fledged laundry a few steps from the back of the camper, it was a no brainier.

 I cooked some Instant Pot Red beans and cauliflower rice.  Our first try at cauliflower rice was a success.   We will head further West tomorrow.
