Clark Fork Market, Missoula - spent some time on my day off in Missoula walking around this market.  All the tents in the distance are different local food venders with all sorts of foods and drinks.

After the market I walked up the street and found this guy jamming on a piano.  This piano is 1 of 2 pianos that have both been put in well trafficked pedestrian areas and are open to anyone to sit down and play.  This guy is really good.  I ended up talking to him after a while and he's from Brooklyn and grew up very close to where I lived.

Missoula People's Market, W. Pine Street - Found another craft market just outside on the street from Adventure Cycling Association.

Blackfoot River, Bonner, MT

Ride to Lincoln

Leaving Lincoln in the a.m. and had zero visibility on the road.

Then the sun came out and started burning the mist and fog away.

Then the road ceased to exist for about 9 miles...

70 degrees below zero!! En route to Rogers Pass.

Winnett, Montana tucked right up under that ridge...

Winnett, Montana... Stopped here for lunch and ended up talking to a couple who was travelling through the area and then they left and when I went to pay for my meal they had already paid it.  That's a first for this trip.  Also, I'm staying at the "hotel" that that sign is pointing too... Yep, it is awesome!

Also, Public Service Announcement: Don't do meth!

Seriously, just don't!

God damnit! Just stop already!!!!!!
