Though we'd originally been planning on only spending one night in Bozeman, we changed our plans after a pleasant morning in town. We spent a few hours in a coffee shop, made some phone calls, and enjoyed walking/biking around the city. The food coop was an excellent place for lunch, and to resupply on a few goodies (dark chocolate covered ginger, Brazil nuts). Our second real rest day! (Though we did still bike about 20 miles around town.)

Olives: a fabulous addition to our usual culinary habits |

Don't you normally make benches out of ski lifts? |
Bozeman seems like a touristy, slightly collegey, outdoorsy place. Generally pleasant and interesting, if not our favorite place we've been to (it's rather expensive/boutiquey). Lots of people on bikes. It also has excellent cocktails and LOTS of coffee shops.

We made a new friend! |
We've decided that cocktails (and other drinks) are really interesting because they can offer flavors that you couldn't otherwise find in foods. The beet (lemon, tarragon, egg white, gin) cocktail, an excellent example.

Can't beat that color... ;) |

Bourbon, Drambuie, grapefruit bitters, Laphroaig. Also excellent. |
We decided that not paying for camping is a good way to fund our drink exploration :)
We watched a movie in the evening--that was a fun and different activity! We chose a French movie from Netflix called The Kid with the Bicycle (couldn't depart TOO much from our touring theme), which we don't necessarily recommend. Parts were enjoyable, poignant, etc, but it lacked substance (i.e. a decent plot or ending). Oh well, still pleasant.
