heading out on the highway

ok so I can't sing, never been accused of coming close but I hear this tune in my head and I am not a big judus priest fan either in fact after I pulled up the video I was like ewww not adding that to my blog.  anyhow.

we had a fun drive from lewiston Idaho to missoula Washington recently  216 miles of twisty turny road that apparently is highly rated for motorcyclists. we drove it in a car and just imagined we were on a motorcycle with a sidecar of course.  at least according to this website: http://www.motorcycleroads.com/routes/RockyMtn/ID/ID_12.shtml

this was shot from the car and basically shows the gist of it.  many miles of road, river, moutains and beauty

near the end you hit the summit at lolo pass a great stopping point to get out and stretch and you may even see snow in July!!!!

at this point you head down the mountain and the water starts going the same direction you do.  almost to missoula!!!

  1. so pretty. we have a stretch here on the Blue Ridge Parkway that looks similar. Or going down to Lynville Caverns. And riding a bike is a great way to enjoy these views. :)

  2. That first picture looks just like a spot about an hour from my house. You kind of forget what lives in your backyard when you're so close!
