a buddy of mine are taking his bmw on a 2 week road trip to encompass seattle, la, san fransisco, tombstone, mexico, las vegas, and denver. this is to start next friday the 12th. is anyone planning even small trips or want to meet up? or even better, are there any attractions like the worlds largest ball of string in your community? we enjoy fun little things like that.

so me and my buddy crowmagnumheaded out this morning from williston on our over 4000 mile roadtrip to the west coast, we are currently at a friends house, so far today we have seen an indian drinking a 40 at 9am in brockton mt, the worlds largest tractor, in havre we stopped and checked out the underground town, idk if anyone has heard about that but it was really cool. back in 1904 there was a large fire that burned down a large portion of downtown havre so the business owners just started to go into there basements and there was a whole network of tunnels going from business to business. from ***** houses to meat plants they were all down there, i cant get photobucket to upload the pictures but i took a few down there and they are really cool.

after that our tally of kills are two gophers and one bird and i got the first rock chip already but its not that big, nothing else was that exciting until we finally got to east glacier to the chalet that i stayed at two years ago and got some huckleberry soda there (the best soda ever) then went up the road and saw the worlds largest purple spoon, its like 15 feet tall or so, then we cruised down the road all the way to kalispell for the night and thats where we are now, pete will fill in any details i have missed but we will keep you guys updated with pics hopefully soon

oh, we saw a pickup pulling a trailer that the transfer case locked up on and he ####ing flew onto the sidewalk and into a businesses lawn, nearly hitting a kid on a bike. we saw a specific taser only cop car on a res, a ricer with what looked like at least a 6 inch cowl, a classic falcon that was set up as a highly modified drag car. giant meats tucked away , exhaust closer than an inch to the ground, and the vehicle was so low that the had to cut the rear fender to get the exhaust out

My Sisters lives not to far from there, that place actually buys all of Six Flags old coasters and moves them there. That coster wasn't there a few years ago. Hopefully you went to Sandpoint, just north of there. Cute town:thumbsup: and home to Lighthouse foods (salad dressings and stuff) they have a cool tasting thing there:D

Edit: Yeap I was right that coaster is one of Six Flags DeJa Vu, only one left is here in LA.
