Day 15 – Short and sweet.

Billings, Montana to Hardin, Montana



Today was a treat. The day was about 50 miles long only, and so we all took our time and poked around on the bike. I rode with Ane the whole day, along with a bunch of other people. It was fun just to take our time, knowing that no matter how slow we go, or how many stops we made, we’d still get in early. We played a bunch of games on the bike, attempted to unwrap starbursts with just our tongues, and Ane even did a little off-roading (a.k.a. rode into the ditch :). It was a good day, and when we got into camp we were thrilled to learn that our Hardin campsite was adjacent to a really nice community pool. After a little swimming and hot-tubbing, we wandered into town to a local diner and the grocery store.



The rest of the evening was spent being lazy and laying out on our thermarests on the grass. The local Hardin 4-H club was sweet enough to bring us ice cream and sang Happy Birthday to Dan Scott in Crow. As the sun went down, the four of us (Me, Sean, Ben and Ane) listened to music, giggled, and watched the sky paint itself.
