DAY 3 ROCK SPRINGS TO DILLON MONTANA

The entire day was absolutely beautiful with roads changing from grasslands to canyons following different rivers. Weaving back and forth on well maintained pavement crossing small bridges with almost no traffic.

Lunch on the Idaho border at Alpine next to a huge reservoir (Palisades Reservoir) on the Snake River. Following the coast line we found a hydro-electric plant at the dam. We were then back following the river, looking down at bright blue rafts full of people. If you had ever ridden the Soaring Over America ride at Disneyland this was one of the scenes straight from that IMAX production. The difference being this was real, right there in front of you happening in real time.

Dinner was at a small local dinner, The 4B's, with decent food, an interesting clientele, and a highly animated waitress. Anjelica, "there isn't a g in it I'm no angel" she was running around the entire place, got our orders right and could explain the difference between a knucklehead, pan, and evo Harley motor. Her first ride as a kid was on her dad's knucklehead. Lets just say she was interesting...

That's the beauty of riding all around the US...discovering diversity and appreciating it! Another great share. Posting late as the grandkids, Maddie, Irene and I spent a fun day at the Children's Museum.
