The Drive Home

We departed a day early from MT because rain was forecast all day so may as well begin the drive back.  Fortunately, while it did rain extensively around Whitefish, we broke out of the rain about an hour south of the city.

We reached Missoula and passed the "M" mountain.....

...reached a very desolate northern Idaho....

....stayed a night somewhere which requires us to lug our bikes up to the room where sun reflected off Amy's mirror.  Almost looks like the moon.

Jack loves to jump into the pillows at every hotel stop.

Back on the road for the 2nd day of driving.  The total time spent driving the route home is about 21 hours but we broke it up into 3 days of driving.

Lots of great views along the way before we stopped just north of Las Vegas.

A bunch of rain overnight and this is the system that also hit "Burning Man", causing all their weather related problems.

We got a good look at Lake Meade.

Our fine day was expected to be a wet one but we got mostly lucky, escaping the brunt of the activity.  So with that, our month in MT comes to an end.  We'll be back for sure.
