Observations from the road
, 09 17th, 2009One can’t travel without making new discoveries. Listed below are some discoveries and observations that I made on my most recent adventure to Yellowstone and Glacier:
- Good thing about Montana #1: A casino is attached to every gas station, which is super convenient because you can also buy hunting supplies while you’re filling up your car. Talk about one-stop shopping!
- Good thing about Montana #2: Their advertising budget must be entirely comprised of license plate designs. I counted at least 7. All of them different, all pretty nice. (It helps when you are known for “big sky country” rather than, say, potatoes, dairy, or some other non-Atkins-approved edible.)
- You have to wonder about just what goes on in Idaho Falls gas stations when the bathroom includes a vending machine for “delightfully delicious, tastefully yours” flavored condoms. Makes me glad they had seat covers.
- Overalls are never a good option for adults, particularly for senior women who have lived long enough to know better. Listen, we all like to let loose a little bit when we travel. And being in the great outdoors, maybe we feel like letting our hair down a bit. But let’s have some personal pride, huh? Leave the overall shorts at home.
- And speaking of fashionistas… Ladies, the older you are the more important your undergarments become — even on vacation. Remember, there’s a reason the store department is sometimes called “foundations” — because without a sure one, the rest of the outfit crumbles. Even the Bible backs me up on this.
