It was kind of nice having a day off just to relax. With the exception of family visits most have been to wait out really bad weather or because I was sick/injured. There’s an Albertson’s across the street so I’ve been eating like a pig for 2 days. Believe it or not some of it was actually healthy food too. I’ve been craving salad for the last week so for the 2nd night in a row I’ll be eating that for dinner. Did a little shopping too. Downloaded Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit and Yahtzee for my Ipod. 
With my bike safely stowed in my room I headed out for a 2 mile walk to the Buffalo Bill Historical Center. Some impressive storm clouds were overhead but no rain came down. Thunderstorms are forecast for this area all week so I’m sure I’ll run into some wet weather at some point. Walked along Sheridan Ave which seems like the main drag. I was tempted to stop and grab a drink at one of the bars but I had a couple Fat Tires cooling back in the motel room. 4/5 of the museums in the Historical Center were open so I wandered around all of them. The collections, especially in the Buffalo Bill and Plains Indian museums, were very impressive. The paintings in the Western Art Gallery were amazing. I don’t really like taking pictures in museums even if its permitted so I only took a couple (I like things in their natural state).
Back on the road tomorrow. Might be Thursday before I post again. Not sure if wifi is available in Yellowstone.

Hi Scott,
Glad to see you are doing well. It’s all uphill from there. On the way towards Yellowstone there is a very nice place just outside called Elephant Head Lodge. Been a few years since we were there, son not sure on prices. It was reasonable. You need to hang your food from now on. Gummie Bear trails won’t work. Really big bears ahead. Have fun.
