This is a new one for me….blogging from a tent.
Many campgrounds now have wireless. That’s one of the key points of this trip…to be at the edge of electricity and see what innovations are happening.
Home-bought fireworks exploding over my head. No Eastern restrictions here.
Rode across Montana and half of Idaho today. Was really beat. Then saw huge field of parked trucks/cars and heard loud crowd noises.
Big combo dirt track and rodeo stadium.
Demolition Derby. Home grown.
Had to stop. Parked about half mile away at only parking I could find. Cost me $6 to get in. Probably 2000 to 3000 people in three large sets of bleachers.
I got to see one “run”, or “match”, or “heat”.
I had never seen one up close. None of that namby-pamby put-the-crowd-behind-glass stuff here. Real life. In your face.
Some shots.
