After two of the most stressful and physically taxing days that I can ever remember, we are finally on our way to our new life in Ontario. We left Larry & Grace’s place (The Pioneer Bed & Breakfast – Irricana, Alberta) at 7:00 a.m., stopped for a coffee at Tim Horton’s as we left Calgary.
Saturday evening we arrived at Billings, Montana around 6:00 p.m. and checked into the Dude Rancher Lodge. We know it will be several days to get over the exhaustion and stress but we are starting to relax. We asked the front desk for a recommendation for dinner, which we were thrilled that we took her advice. The Montana Brewing Company is a truly unique place to dine. This brewpub is known for an incredible home-style menu and a full bar featuring special microbrews. We now also recommend it if you ever visit Billings, Montana.
We woke up on Sunday morning to heavy snow coming down. After a nice breakfast, we filled up with gas we started out for Rapid City, South Dakota. Unfortunately the weather worsened as continued, pressing through carefully. We made it over the pass from Billings, Montana on I-90 but we only got as far as Sheridan, Wyoming due to the blizzard. We are stuck here for the night at the Quality Inn, which turned out to be just fine with us -- nice hotel. Our room has a lazy boy recliner, which gave us a much needed feeling of home. If you are ever in Sheridan, Wyoming, eat at Los Agaves restaurant -- truly authentic Mexican food -- I was completely satisfied.
Monday, Nov 29th, we are planning to head to Rapid City, South Dakota because of the weather that is as far as we can probably go until the storm passes through this area.
Looking forward to your arrival! we haven't told Sage yet, he'll be pleasantly surprised!
