Mountain Goat, Glacier National Park
Yes, two people can live and sleep for 22 days out of a Toyota 4Runner and still enjoy one another's company and the road. We have designated every nook and cranny in the craft for storage of specific items (it is a mystery how the wine puller ended up in the passenger side door with the bug spray, sunscreen and apres-latrine hand-sanitizer, but there it remains, because we both know exactly where it is). We can now shift all the bear-safe food containers from the front seats to back (where we sleep) in under 20 minutes in the dark. Nutrition has been suspect, but we found a great brand of hazelnut bread for PB&J, and a fine wine store in Great Falls.
I've filled about 40 GB of files, despite the disastrous conditions with wildfire smoke up and down the Montana Rocky Mountain Front. More on all that later -- we have an early morning start (again). We won't have an internet connection again for a few more days. I haven't even had time to look at my pictures, just enough to copy them to DVDs and back-up DVDs. I hope you like this goat as a preview of the MT segment of the book project, will be back with more details after the weekend and our return to SLC.

Maybe the Montana section of the book will be my favorite. Could it be because I got to share a tiny bit of that? The picture of the kayak on the lake warmed my heart, glacier melt not-with-standing. I must put that on some agenda or another.
