God smiled on us.

Chuck and I are sitting in a hotel room in Havre Montana. Kadizzle is contemplating mooching lodging from a friend on Flathead lake.  We had perfect weather for our ride. We made 500 miles with sunshine and clear skies all the way.  With all the foliage so green the trip was better than anticipated.  Amazingly there was very little traffic.  No big excitement.  The most notable thing Kadizzle saw was a man pulling what appeared to be a rickshaw, you know, one of those Chinese taxis.  This was a very strange site.  The man was pulling a box like structure about the size of an outhouse.  What first caught my attention was a very large red cross on the box like structure.  Foolishly Kadizzle did not stop or turn around to investigate. There is no way anyone could be pulling such a strange contraption and not have a wonderful story to explain why.  Kadizzle speculated it would either be some sort of religious pilgrimage, or a patriotic message, but there seemed to be no signs except the huge red cross.

The motorcycles performed very well and we were both pleased. We are getting about 46 miles per gallon. Kadizzle just asked Chuck if he wished to add anything to the report.  Chuck wants people to know the cat fish bite in the Yellowstone is not good today.  The fisherman where we took a break said it was too windy, but he caught ten yesterday.  The fisherman told Kadizzle he preferred catfish to Walleye.

Now I must report the most peculiar thing. I thought I was done writing this story so I finished and checked the CNN news on the internet.  There I noticed a story about a woman who developed an accent after she had surgery.  Unbelievably this morning in Killdeer at the Cenex Kadizzle met a person who had the same thing happen.  As Kadizzle paid for his coffee he noticed the male clerk had a Boston accent.  Kadizzle asked him where he was from, and he said Green Bay Wisconsin.  Puzzled why someone from Green Bay Wisconsin would have a Boston accent Kadizzle inquired and the clerk explained it resulted from surgery.
