The day began in Seattle today with the goal to drive to Missoula, MT more than 450 miles away. The beginning stretch of Washington through the Cascades was beautiful and green with trees everywhere. The overcast day quickly gave way to blistering sun once we crossed through the Cascade Mountains.

The terrain from the Cascades to Idaho was full of brown fields and rolling hills. We had a quick drive through the panhandle of Idaho, and before we knew what hit us, we were welcomed into Montana.
Welcome to Montana!
While it was a long day in the car, we enjoyed the scenery and the fresh air. At one point, we had the windows rolled down and the fresh scent of pine blew in to tickle our noses.
Tomorrow we’re going to Yellowstone. I can’t wait to see Old Faithful. Another early day with lots and lots of driving.
