To HELL & back

OK, so it really wasn't HELL. It was Helena, Montana, and it was pretty damn close.
For a capital city it sure lacks everything you'd expect - good restaurants (except for Silver Star Steak Co.

See, what happened was our truck broke down on Friday after setting up the dog show. We were able to drive it over to the only Ford place within 300 miles and they said they'd have it done by Monday or Tuesday. As it turns out we didn't get out of there until 12:30 THURSDAY and we had to be in the middle of Washington for another show set up on Friday. Should've known better with a Fixed Or Repair Daily, Found On Road Dead(aka Ford).

The "mall" is a joke, practically every store in there is closed or closing. I asked one of the remaining kiosk workers where do people shop? His reply was Missoula -- a 2 hour drive away!!!

I was never so glad to leave a place in my life.
