America!!!

Sometimes you don't know what you're missing until you get it back. Like the PROPER road signs I noticed after crossing the border. You know, a green rounded rectangle with a nice white border and large letters.

And some things you DO notice are missing, as soon as they are taken from you. Like not having unlimited 3G service at your fingertips. Oh how good it is to be back. Where I can download an ALBUM if I want, while riding across Montana. Where I can reliably pay at the PUMP. And where I know I can buy Peanut M&M's almost ANYWHERE.

Ride, ride, ride

That's what we're doing. On a mission (and on about 3 hours of sleep). I'm riding right now in fact. While I post this. And there's traffic. Ok just kidding we are at another A&W. A&W is a favorite of dad's from earlier days (and of mine, though I barely remember), and they are now hard to come by in the midwest. They also have free wifi. A precious commodity up here, allowing completely boring posts like this (which really only serve to let Julie and my mom know I am alive and intact (Hi Julie! Hi mom!)).

Anyway... This will most likely be our last opportunity to have one of their amazing chilled-mug aged-vanilla root beers, as we will be crossing back into the states in just a few hundred kilometers. Our 6th and final country border crossing. Pfew!
