Well, due to the disappearance of the "Lost Episodes" we'll just pick up with day 11 of the tour, when Cory and I hung out in Yellowstone National Park and then drove up through Montana to Polebridge. This was actually our second time through Montana. The day before, we had driven up to Billings just in time to be serenaded by a 400-pound gravitron carnie at the Montana state fair, who had a passionate love for old Poison Ballads. Between Yellowstone and Glacier, we had time to hang out in the hot springs and we saw a firefighting hellicopter which was entirely new to a couple of east coast boys who thought forest fires were rare. This is the event that inspired my dream of becoming a flame jumper.
