We started with a Birthday Breakfast for daughter Jennifer.

Then it was time to hit the road.  The destination for the evening was Missoula Montana.

We drove up the gorge, across to tri-cities, up to Spokane, a quick dash across the Idaho panhandle and into Montana.

Other than the spectacular scenery (and the part between tai-cities and Spokane) there wasn’t much in the way of excitement.  We have some books on tape and have been wiling away the hours of quiet (no kids, no Bubble Guppies videos) listening to Laurie R. King’s novel O Jerusalem.
