Miles 2455-2640: Drive to Bozeman and Bozeman

We weren’t in a hurry to get up that morning which felt really good, as did the heating, because it had been very cold all the mornings camping. We finally went to breakfast around 10 (our time) in the hotel. When we went back to the room, we had a lot of clean laundry from the last night to put away, so we repacked our trunks. When Dad took Jackson’s trunk to the car, he had forgotten to brush his teeth. The second time, he had forgotten to get his things out of the shower. He’s so smart, but so absent-minded sometimes. My dad says he’s the “dumbest smart kid he’s ever seen.”. On the drive to Bozeman, we stopped in West Yellowstone for Texas Style barbeque. North Carolina barbeque is definitely better; I drowned my sandwich in barbeque sauce, but it was still pretty good. We drove into Bozeman around two and check-in at our Airbnb was four. So we walked around downtown Bozeman. It’s a cool little town. After we checked in at the apartment, we went to the grocery store so we could actually cook dinner and breakfast. While Mom made dinner, I posted pictures and wrote the camping trip blog post. After dinner (tacos and Southwest salad), we got ready for bed and started watching the Two Towers. We want to watch the three Lord of the Rings movies before we go to New Zealand and we finally were somewhere with a DVD player. We got about halfway through and then went to bed. We’re going to finish it tonight. I’m so excited!!!

Maybe I don’t have to be good, but I can try to be at least a little better than I’ve been so far.
