I am in Sidney, MT waiting to look at a farmhouse out in the country. Laramie is 10 hrs away!
First, we drove about 4.5 hrs before we needed to stop for gas, and dummie me missed the exit for town! A few miles later I say a big sign that says "Fuel!" So I exit the interstate and drive around this loopy road to see this beautiful lake. I fuel up and then pump the damn employees for information, like where am I? What is this place? (HUH???) Ok, is this a campsite? (YES) How much is it? ($12) What kind of stuff do you have? (a bathhouse, pool, laundry, playground, cafe {which served: burgers, chz burgers, bacon chz burgers, dbl chz burgers, hotdogs and fries, no shit})
We went camping. Did I mention I only had a kids tent? Travelling with oneadult, moi, and three kids? Yeah.
Last night we stayed in a motel in Glendive, MT.
No more camping!
So I got a paper in Miles City and stopped at the best store in the world, Wal-Mart, as if I have to say!! and called every number in the rentals section. I found one house that may become vacant.
One hour later, in Glendive, I tried my luck with the Ranger Review. Five houses, all rented already!! Then I got a hold of A.C., the man who owns many propertoes in the town. He had a few units available could I come by tomorrow? 8:11 am, in his office. One small trailer, almost exactly like the one I live in, yes, I am trailer trash! except it isn't as wide. Sorry, won't work. The 3 bedroom might be rented, he won't know until tomorrow, since he's been fishing all week. { In a cabin, not a tent. } In a few weeks he'll own a 3 bedroom house maybe...
So I go back to the motel and call Chantz, who is still in Texas, but with a cell phone so its a local call. He tells me I need to call Bill. Damn. Thats my step dad who is mad because I didn't clear this rad trip with himand ma, although I told them I was coming, I just came a few days early, with no intentions at all of staying with them! OK? Anyway, I call and he found a house in the country...
