Today we drove almost 500 miles; I really enjoyed the drive. We started early morning so we had the chance to see how the raising sun changes the colors of the trees from plain grey into pale pink , white snow to bright pink, blue clouds into different colours clouds. There still lots on snow around, the mountains are mostly covered in snow but also there are dry patches with vegetation and bare trees. We passed through impressive canyons with cliffs and mesas, interesting geological formations.
Altogether it was a very pleasant drive, yet it was a long drive , when we finally stopped at destination and I got out of the car my legs almost collapsed on me.
We are spending the night in Billings; Billings is a very typical small size American city with a big mall governed by Wal Mart. However in this small uneventful city, I had 2 very nice experiences - the front desk clerk at the motel was nice, friendly, accommodating; the guy at Pizza Hut (we got a pizza as we were to hungry to go out for dinner) gave us 20 dollars back because we were waiting or the pizza for more than 25 min. So we had dinner for 4 bucks, not too bad for unemployed people. We may have to go back to Pizza Hut and pray to "someone" that our pizza is not ready on time :)
Pizza was delicious, or I wonder if it was indeed delicious or it was just my hungry imagination :)
