Day 19 - Another windy day - in our face! Wolf Pooint, Montana to Circle, Montana.

Day 19.  So, does anyone know a wind-changing program?  I would be happy to download it.  Today we are staying in Circle, Montana - only half way to where we wanted to be.  56.7 miles and 2,660 foot elevation gain.  We had an even stronger headwind than the other two days and at times I had to work to go five miles per hour.  They were a 6 long hours too.  Still, the rolling prairie was beautiful, as were the people.
So, starting out crossed the Missouri river for the first time.  Even up here it is a wide river.  The old bridge was put up in 1930 and still is standing - but they won't let us walk across it let alone ride our bikes.  Hate to see it fall down.

The next interesting sign we saw was this one.  I have the feeling this sign might mean something different in the big city, but out here it's all about hunting - for rocks and racks.

On thing we have seen along the way are the old school houses.  They are of various sizes and shapes, but here are two we saw along the way.  Quite a bit of history here.  The last year these were used was 1967!

Finally, we camp out wherever we can and are allowed to.  Some of the locals told us to stay at the county fairgrounds, and here we are in the livestock section.  Appropriate.  As is common out here, after we had set up our tents another fellow offered to let us stay at his shop - bathroom, shower and beds.  We thanked him and told him we were already set up, but next time we would call ahead.  Very nice fellow.

Tomorrow we hope the winds either let down a bit or blow to the east.  We shall see!
