  We had breakfast and showered at the campground. There was a historic Montana ranch nearby, but we decided not to stop there. We really want to get down the road towards Colorado.

  We tried to get some computer work done, but we are way behind. We're both ready to go home. We've decided to just head back to Colorado.
