Day 71 - Lolo hot springs

Shorter ride today so I could soak in the hot springs. Felt great on my muscles 

Saw this mural on the way out of Missoula

Kath LevAnd bears. Good thing you didn’t see any of them, either.

There is a story behind this next photo. I am a firm believer in local spending. For dinner I ordered a taco salad that had Montana beef, onions and tomatoes. To top it off I used Arthur Wayne hot sauce from Missoula. To wash it down I had a cold Double Haul IPA from Kettlehouse Brewing in Missoula. When I was growing up there was a local bar called The Mason Jar. First time since then that I have had a beer served in a mason jar. Brought me back to my 20s.
