Your view for the next two weeks will be better than Josie's!My view for the next two weeks:
Have a great trip - I covered most of that territory 5 years ago; the year I got my FJR.

Have fun. Thanks for staying out of Idaho, we appreciate it

Thanks. Wearing Olympia AST jackets and bringing our electric liners and gloves, just in case...
We may actually wander into the upper right corner of the potato state if'n we have the time.

Oh, that's great news! So happy to hear that the two of you are going. This will be so memorable for you both.
We (Jim and I) look forward to hearing of your adventures and seeing photos.
Have fun!!!

Thanks, Iris! You know that Jim and your trip through that area a few years back has been a big part of my motivation.
It's hard to forget when I look up at Jim's fantastic Glacier NP photo hanging over my kitchen table every morning!!

Mr. Camping Meet
Some of us enjoy riding LD with our spouses! It just seems most do not... You two are definitely in the first category!

Only downside is the timing--not sure if it's yours or mine. I'm leaving at the end of August sometime and covering a lot of the places and roads you're heading for, but at a more leisurely pace. NYS by 9/17, back here by 10/18 on the southern swing. Would have been nice to meet you along the way. Have a great time.

I'm looking forward to your pics of that area Fred. It's hard to take a bad picture of that neck of the woods....it's all beautiful.
Good luck and safe travels.
And, I agree with you that it's always better to share these experiences/adventures with your best friend.

We'll plan on 4 days of travel to get out to some of the sights in western SD (Badlands, Black Hills, Rushmore, but NOT Sturgis) and we can start the real sight seeing touring there.
You are going to to the Black Hill during the Sturgis Rally? Brave man, have fun with the HD crowd.

Maybe we'll buzz by there and hit it on the way home.
Harleys are just other vehicles to pass along the way.

I didn't realize this was Sturgis time. They will be clogging the roads in great numbers. Save it for the ride home.
