LEWIS (MOTOR MIKE) AND CLARK'S (JACK) ADVENTURE....DAY #3...322 MILES (949 TOTAL)

HEY EVERYONE.......LEWIS AND CLARK HERE ONCE AGAIN. BEING AS THOUGH WE GAINED AN HOUR ON SUNDAY, WE WOKE UP THIS MORNING AT 6:00 A.M. INSTEAD OF OUR NORMAL 7:00. THE SUN WAS SHINING BRIGHTLY, AND THE WINDS WERE CALM, WITH CHILLY TEMPS. WE RODE OUT OF TOWN HEADING GENERALLY IN A NORTHWEST DIRECTION. BOTH OF OUR STEEDS HAVE BEEN EATING A LOT MORE FOOD THAN NORMAL. COULD IT BE THE 45-50 MPH WINDS WE ENCOUNTERED AROUND LUNCHTIME TODAY?
BUT.......LIKE CLARK SAYS, THERE'S ALWAYS A BRIGHT SPOT SOMEWHERE, AND WE FOUND IT.

WE'VE MANAGED TO BE OFF COURSE THE ENTIRE TRIP, AND AFTER THE INTENSE WINDS WE RODE IN TODAY, WE SEEM TO BE BACK IN THE GENERAL AREA (CODY, WY.), NO THANKS TO CLARK'S MAP READING ABILITIES. HE KEEPS TELLING ME THE ROUTE WE'VE BEEN ON THE LAST 3 DAYS WAS JUST DELETED FROM THE ORIGINAL RECORD KEEPING. HE MAY BE JUST TRYING TO COVER HIMSELF.

ALL KIDDING ASIDE, THE WIND WAS SO INTENSE THIS AFTERNOON IT HAD BLOWN A TRAILER OVER BEING PULLED BY A PICKUP, JUST BEFORE WE ARRIVED IN CODY. I USED AREAS OF MY TIRES I'VE NEVER USED BEFORE, AS THE LEAN ANGLES WERE SOMEWHERE AROUND 40-45 DEGREES AT TIMES. MAYBE TOMORROW WILL BE A CALMER DAY. IF NOT.......WE MAY END UP IN CANADA.

IF CLARK CAN FIND HIS MAP OF MONTANA, THAT'S WHERE WE'RE HEADED IN THE MORNING. HE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT LOOKING FOR A BEAR TOOTH......WHO KNOWS WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT!!

STAY TUNED FOR DAY#4 AND ANOTHER EXCITING DAY WITH LEWIS AND CLARK. WELL.....IT'S EXCITING FOR ME ANYWAY. I'M THE ONE THAT'S FOLLOWING HIS EVERY TURN.
