Had software difficulties with the Olympus software and my macintosh. We are now uploading from Steve&#8217;s PC.So &#8211; as we left Bozeman we came across a road side stop commemorating Diamond City and the crash of a National Guard A-26:<a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707020002.jpg\" title=\"Confederate Gulch\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707020002.jpg\" alt=\"Confederate Gulch\" \/><\/a>While we were there we met <a href=\"http:\/\/biketripdana.livejournal.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dana<\/a>,<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707020001.jpg\" title=\"Dana\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707020001.jpg\" alt=\"Dana\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>who was bicycleing from Moab Az, to Glacier. Yikes o mighty.  That trip would make me tired on the motorcyle, and on a bicycle I don&#8217;t think I would survive. Anyway we were talking about nice places to go and I was trying to remember a place &#8211; Sinkyone. (dana hope you find it).<\/p>\n<p>Most of the day was spent getting to the mountains , we could always see them in the distance off to the left but never really got into them &#8211; alot of w i d e open spaces.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707020004.jpg\" title=\"7-3 Bikes\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707020004.jpg\" alt=\"7-3 Bikes\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We didn&#8217;t stop much for pics since the scenery was not as spectacular as we had become accustomed to. Not to say it was boring &#8211; just not photo stop kinda stuff.<\/p>\n<p>We got to Choteau, got a room and had dinner and then went back about 6 or 7 miles out of town on an overlook towards the mountains and sat there for a couple hours watching the sun set and the critters come out. We took a <a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/index.php\/videos\/#Sunset\" target=\"_blank\">58 minute video of the sunset<\/a>, but not sure if it will carry over to the site since it is a big file (1.3 Gig). But we shot some pics as well so here they are:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020292.jpg\" title=\"7-3 flowers\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020292.jpg\" alt=\"7-3 flowers\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020302.jpg\" title=\"sunset 1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020302.jpg\" alt=\"sunset 1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020307.jpg\" title=\"sunset 2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020307.jpg\" alt=\"sunset 2\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020315.jpg\" title=\"sunset 3\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/p7020315.jpg\" alt=\"sunset 3\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707030001.jpg\" title=\"sunset bikes\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707030001.jpg\" alt=\"sunset bikes\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>All in all it was a nice relaxing day. Got a late start and an early finish, and,  had a great sunset, couldn&#8217;t ask for much more.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707030002.jpg\" title=\"Sunset Panorama\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bernie.jshall.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/200707030002.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset Panorama\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Hope you all have a great 4th, don&#8217;t get too hung over, and remember what it is we&#8217;re celebrating (and it ain&#8217;t the invention of fireworks).<\/p>\n<p>Teddy &#8211; hope Matt isn&#8217;t needing bailling out.  If you know Joepa&#8217;s email address would you forward this site address to him cause I can&#8217;t remember it, and I told him I would get it to him.  The long days in the sun and wind seems to be frying what little brains are still there.<\/p>\n<p>Kate say hi to all in WVa.
