We were expecting packages this morning, so we had to wait for the Post Office to open. With all that time we had a leisurely breakfast at the Bait Shop, and took our precious time packing things up. We haven't done that for a week or so. We used to take really nice, relaxing mornings, but the heat and the bugs have started lighting a fire under us when we crawl out of the tent in the morning.
Unfortuanetly, the slow morning, while enjoyable, made for a tough day. We ended up getting out around 10:30 as the heat was setting and and the wind was whipping up out of the Southeast, or into our faces. My stomach sinks. Another day into the wind. It brings back these horrible memories of Eastern, MT.
So, when we got into Pierre at 9pm we decided that 16 days of solid riding without a day off was enough. We got a hotel room and decided to kick it in Pierre for a day. What luck, the Mexican restaurant next door was one of the best I've ever eaten at, and Cartoon Network was running a Family Guy marathon.
Heaven.
