Day 17

Last night we got to sleep in a Teepee! We made it to the campground and the owner offered us their Teepee for only $15 more for the night. It had a bed and carpet and a fan and no worries of getting hailed on...so we took it. 
Montana is really a pretty state even in the monotony of the long, flat highway. All of the fields and prairies are incredibly green and it's contrasted well by the big blue sky!! It's easy to see why they call this the "big sky state". In any direction you look, your eyes can see on for miles. We can always tell when the rain is coming and in which direction it's headed. Lately, it seems as though we're always in a race with the rain. It happened again tonight. We ran into Subway only moments before it poured. Get this though: we missed the rain, but as soon as we set up our tent in the city park, the sprinklers came on and soaked EVERYTHING. Oh well, we survived. :)

  1. A teepee - how awesome! By the end of this trip, you all will have experienced many things. It was so good to hear your voice yesterday. I've been praying for your knees.

    "For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return not thither but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My Word be that goes forth from My Mouth; it shall not return to Me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and prosper in the thing for which I sent it." (Isaiah 55:10-11)
