It was a hard struggle with many set backs and frustrations BUT we are finally heading down the road.
We finally finished loading and took off around 7:00 pm Wednesday for Missoula.
First stop:
After a truly yucky and not so quick dinner. we really were on our way.
We left town at 8:00 pm and arrived to our first overnight destination in Missoula. the Walmart SuperCenter. Hey don't you guys turn up your noses at that! It's a great place to boondock.
If you forget something, you can just walk right over and buy it - at a great savings to your pocket book I might add.
But seriously, we couldn't believe how many big rigs were parked there.
We stayed most of the next day there and headed over to Dr. Rosen's for the deposition a little after noon.
Our next destination: Bozeman to drop off Debbie & Andrew's wedding present from Grandpa. He'd only been working on refinishing the table for the last year and a half but it done. Not to Grandpa's satisfaction. In fact he said to me, "Maybe we should take it to Michigan with us, I can finish it up and we could drop it off on the way back."
Our final destination last night was Billings, but we didn't make it. We stopped just outside of Billings and parked the bus in a truck stop over night.
North Dakota, here we come!

nice looking bus! hope it runs as good as it looks! The GrampyBus.
my vote is grampa would have finished the table in mi ....
I'm not sure Grandpa will ever finish the table...and I think he needs to start working on my stuff...Good luck with the travels!
Oh my gosh, that bus is wonderful. I wish I had one like it. Lovin your blog. Keep it up. Who will be the camp photographer? I know everyone will miss you and your camera. Looking forward to more entries.
P.S. kalob2 is the name Brandy Klein gave me when she set up my blog; unfortunately, I don't know how to use it. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT, SANDI?? lol
We gave the bus a name, it's not the GrampyBus, more like it's ForeverFixingSomethingElseIsWrong bus.
Love this! I haven't laughed so hard - in an overdue amount of time. Thank you for that. I needed it! The video sent me over the edge! I had tears streaming down my face. :) Anyhow, I am SO intrigued. :) I will definitely stay tuned for the Saga of TBH!

P.S. What happened to Reeses?!?!
Allyson,
Reeses would have been the perfect cat to take along this trip. She would have loved it and we wouldn't have worried about her running out of the bus and getting lost. Too bad I'm allergic and in such a close space it would have been miserable (for me - not the cat) :-}
Sandi - Patiently waiting for an update. I almost had another "Anna" for you and Lee, but I think it's going to work out for her and the family.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
