We woke to the noise of semi-trailers, they were also parked in the rest area with us, and about 4 inches of fresh snow. The storm that dropped snow on us yesterday along the Clearwater was still in force last night.

As we headed east along I-90 the sun was rising on a clear day and we were driving pretty much directly into the sun.

We took an exit from the highway into Butte Montana looking for a wifi hot spot but did not find one. What we did find was a town preparing for what we were told was a very big St Patrick's Day parade that was very well known in the region.

The drive along I-5 to Bozeman was uneventful and we arrived at Richard's about 12:30.

We spent the next few days here catching up with Rick and attending to family business.
