Thanks to Butte, Montana

[Ensnared]

Recently, I traveled through Montana on Greyhound bus over the Thanksgiving holidays. No, it was not the best trip I've ever taken, but it was certainly memorable. Since I am not a fan of airlines due to airport hassle, I opted for bus trip. I know that this was a rather stupid thing to do in the month of November, but the family visit was pretty important. We ended the bus trip in Richland, Washington before returning to Texas.

The main purpose of this thread is to extend thanks to those that provided a Thanksgiving meal to the poor & weary souls on that Greyhound bus. On the previous night, I had the privilege of spending the night in the Billings Greyhound bus station with many angry passengers. What a miserable night. After finally boarding a bus on Thanksgiving day, I was faced with the task of keeping my blood sugar up since I am a Type II diabetic. At times, I was pretty concerned about the lack of places to eat on Thanksgiving. So, when I learned those at the Butte, Montana Greyhound had prepared a Thanksgiving meal, I was stunned & very thankful for this wonderful meal.

I must admit, I was pretty impressed with the Montana people. I cannot say that scanning was very active in comparison to Texas, but it was pretty interesting.

Again, thanks.

I am

and this was more smoother and more convienant how? Sounds like much MORE of a hassle.

No, I would still rather be in Billings than any American airport. That is how much I abhor airline travel. It is an odd preference of mine. I suppose it all boils down to attitude. I have a tendency to speak my mind in the presence of authority. Sometimes, this gets me in trouble. So, I know my limitations. I would prefer traveling by automobile unless the driving conditions are poor like they were then. In the air, you cannot enjoy the scenery.
