U.S. Route 2 Westbound - Day 04

September 08, 2010

Kinda slept in a little due to pulling a late shift last night. Got out of Minot and out into the rolling flatness for a long run into Montana's eastern edge, and into its northcentral region. Long and straight, with the occasional bump or slight turn.In a couple of those towns we saw a sign that simply said, "Canada" with a " right arrow. Turning north to another country. Love that shit.Drove through all those little towns, exploring the alleys and back roads. Good times.Made it to Havre and found a Super 8 with a strong WiFi connection. I've enjoying three bars of wireless internets right now. Thanks, Montana.Into Montana's eastern straightaways.Near the train tracks, Glasgow, Mont.A long day of this.A dead payphone booth in some almost-dead town.Saul Bass holds it down in Saco, Mont.The Mint Bar, Chinook, Mont.Old "Cowboy Bar" sign in a town who's name escapes me at this late hour.
