Loading up the truck.

I decided to give myself a pool day yesterday. I did my dishes, took out the garbage, and made sure I had kitty food for Kitty's Uncle (downstairs neighbor) to give her while I am gone. Now I am loading up the truck. Sleeping Bag. Check. Winter jacket. Check. Pillow. check. Rifle. Check. Ammo. Check. Meds. Check. Tools. Check. Guitar with capo and tuner. Check. It's funny that one of the things I am most looking forward to is Arby's. We don't have them on the Coast. I can taste the greenish roast beef and Horsey Sauce as I write. Life is odd. I am not sure if I will be able to drop a post from Montana.There are some hot spots in town, and I will have my cellphone with me. We shall see. I hope you have a glorious week.

I like roast beef, but why greenish? That does not sound safe to eat.

Have a safe trip Colin.

I ate at Arby's four times on my trip! I didn't see any greenish roast beef this Summer. I even brought some Horsey Sauce home.

Yes, life is odd. I have an Arby's here and I remember those roast beef sandwiches. I love their horsey sauce. I hope you enjoy your time in Montana. And your times at Arby's.

@kaylachan I actually have (weak) cell phone service at the cabin now. Wheee! But I didn't really use it.

@TheHorse We have one in the next town over from us and that is the preferred place over McD's and BK!

Maybe it was just the angle of the light. I love that place.

@kareng An Arby's? I wonder if I can buy Horsey Sauce somewhere in Northern California. I grabbed some extra packets while on the road and have been making pretend Arby's sandwiches since I got home. Fried bread and Safeway sliced roast beef are my friends.
