Dad’s Cabin to Lima, MT
On Wednesday night I had an anxiety attack and it freaked me out because I couldn’t talk to Erika( no cell service). For the whole ride on Thursday I was pretty sure I was going to quit the ride and go home. Not many pictures from the day because I wasn’t in the mood.



We rode through a beautiful canyon with lots of rock formations. Sorry I didn’t get any pictures ☹️
We arrived in the town of Lima( pronounced like Lima bean), population 220. I finally was able to talk to Erika and she calmed me down and suggested I continue the ride. She calls it my “pilgrimage” and says a pilgrimage always has ups and downs- literally and figuratively. I felt much better after talking to her and I’m glad I’m not going to throw in the towel so quickly.
Jen, Sarah, and I also booked a motel room which was fortunate because it’s been a little rainy.



Today, Friday, was a much needed rest day. We all took the van and had a field trip into the bigger town of Dillon, 46 miles away.





Just two more days in Montana and then we are into Idaho!
