DAY 8 ROLL ME AWAY 5-27-14

Left this morning westbound still on route 2 the Lewis and Clark Highway still in the high plains. It didn't take long for snow covered peaks to appear on the horizon reaching up towards white scattered clouds the same color as the snow.

We rolled across the high plains
Deep into the mountains
Felt so good to me
Finally feelin' free

Somewhere along a high road
The air began to turn cold
She said she missed her home
I headed on alone

Stood alone on a mountain top,
starin' out at the Great Divide
I could go east, I could go west,
it was all up to me to decide
Just then I saw a young hawk flyin'
and my soul began to rise
And pretty soon
My heart was singin'

Roll, roll me away,
I'm gonna roll me away tonight
Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin',
keep searchin' till I find what's right
And as the sunset faded
I spoke to the faintest first starlight
And I said next time
Next time
We'll get it right

Bob Seger

Route 2 is a beautiful road through the south end of Glacier National Park very rugged, high, snow covered, mountains along a river. 

Lunch in Kalispell and Tim said he was heading south, we turned north into Canada one of our goals for this trip. Rode along the western edge of the Canadian Rockies until we stopped for the night in Cranbrook BC. Takes a while to get used to all the signs being metric, apparently a speed limit of 100 is just not that fast. TThe hotel has a nice tavern with  every tv tuned to hockey, eh. North tomorrow not sure where haven't looked at a map yet.
