Here is the proposed Route.
We've allocated time in Lake Louise, Mt. Rushmore(Damn Bikers), and driving through Northern Ontario.
I'll post when I get the chance. We're going to be camping like we did on the way there.

Day 7 - Saturday August 11th 2007 - Onwards to Seattle Washington/Port Angeles
This was out Campsite in Coeur d'Lenne. So Beautiful. We packed up early to head to Seattle/Port Angeles.
We stopped for gas and stumbled upon this coffee shack - there are a lot of them in the states, Tonnes!
Guess the car... post the answer in the comments section.
"Bikes on the Roof"
Waiting in Seattle for a ferry to get to Port Angeles. We were cutting it close. I hate Islands for this reason! Gotta wait and wait for ferries.
Our stress level was super high. No Booking or reservation, we just made it in this ferry(5:15pm). We were the last car on the ferry. If we missed this one we would have had to wait till 9pm.
A view from the ferry of Port Angeles.
Paparazzi shot... Move over Paris, Lindsay, Lana is Here! Just no Upskirts.

Day 6 - Friday August 10th 2007 - Yellostone/Wallace, Idaho
This was the last day in Yellowstone. Just got there in time to see Old Faithfull finish errupting.
Here are some pics of Lava Pools near the western entrance of Yellowstone.
It was a long drive out of Yellowstone. The traffic was crazy. But onwards to Idaho we went. Wallace is the first town on the I90 as soon as you enter Idaho and we stopped cause we were hungry. It was again an old mining town. Lots of history to the town and quite quaint.
We stopped off to eat at a local hotspot call the Smoke House.
Thats Beef brisket, Smoked Ribs, homemade coleslaw and homemade bean soup. Yum!

We ended up finding a place in Coeur d'Lenne and camped right by the lake, again. You'll see pictures in the next post.

Day 5 - Thursday August 9th 2007 - Yellowstone National Park - Montana/Wyoming
Early rise to meet Ben and ride the Montana Mountains. It was all about climbing and then once you've put out work, it was all down hill! So awesome! I love mountains!
At the top of the trail, there was another abandoned mining site. Pretty neat looking.
More Pics...
A diner in Yellowstone - so good... very reasonably priced too. I had another rootbeer float here.
The Yellow Tour Bus.
Storm Brewing clouds...
Geysers...Boiling Mud Pools...
This one was called "Dragon's Mouth".
The Sulfer really got to you. It smelled like rotten eggs!
Tranquility.
Beauty up close.
Tower Falls.
Classic Rainbow after a Storm.

Day 4 - Wednesday Aug 8th 2007 - Bighorn Mountains/Sheridan, Wyoming
Breakfast @ the Perkins Diner.
That's the dirty plate of food. We felt sick after eating it.
The Bighorn Mountains were spectacular. About 9000ft, the switchbacks were awesome! So fun to drive.
We stopped to check out a lookout point and bumped into Gary. He was from California, but had travelled all over the States in his 1949 GMC pick-up he rebuilt himself! Talking to him was amazing. He had a world of knowledge and was able to relate current world crisis to real estate and wavelengths.
Gary and I...
A shot of the roadway down the mountain.
We took a side road to instead of the main I90 and stumbled upon a historic mining site. The Site had an eerie feeling about it. The metal roof panels clanging in the wind.
A viewpoint halfway from the top.
And this is a pick from the top. My Subie in the clouds.

Day 3 - Tuesday Aug 7th 2007 - Bad Lands National Park, Mt. Rushmore, South Dakota
We left Chamberlain @ 7am in the morning and started to head to the Bad Lands. On the way there we decided to stop @ 1880 Town. They had all the props used in the western movies. Really neat.
The picture speaks for itself.
Living on the edge!
It was hot! Eh Lana?
Sponsor shot. Note the Biker in the background. The Sturgis Biker Rally was on this week, Bikers everywhere!
See what I mean... This was Mt. Rushmore "Biker" Park.
This was me trying to get a shot of the Mountain, before we got kicked off the side of the road by the Rangers all because we weren't Bikers! We plan on hitting this up on the way back to T.O.
Another couple's Shot.

This may just look like a picture of Superman trying to stop a train in Wyoming, but carries a funny story behind it. Ask Lana about it.
