Day 82 – 2014-08-09, Saturday – Great Falls, MT

Well, today WAS supposed to be a ride day, but the trail is closed for a race. Bummer.

Ok, so we go out to look at the end of the race, see some folks come in, and see what the trail looks like. Pretty nice looking, I guess we’ll have to come back if we want to ride it. Bummer.

Lunch was at the Celtic Cowboy. Irish pub, in case you were wondering. I tried a Murphy’s, since they had it on tap. My good friend Richard White says he prefers it over Guinness:

3 - Murphy's

Well, it was good, but a little too light for my tastes. I’ll stick to my Guinness. For lunch, I had the Irish Breakfast:

And The Bear had a grilled cheese sandwich with Tomato Soup:

6 - Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup

Yes, these are half-eaten. Sorry. We were hungry! But here’s a shot of their bar, and all the beers on tap – that’s what that white row of dots is:

We also checked out some of the town, picked up some parts for the trailer, and late afternoon, returned to Bowser Brewing. Here’s their logo:

And here’s some good advice they had posted in the men’s bathroom:

1 - Drink UpstreamSage advice indeed. I had a pint of the Vanilla Bourbon Stout, and The Bear had the Black Bison Coffee Stout. We also took a growler of the Jalapeño Hefeweizen to have with dinner – gonna make Chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and fried okra – YUM! (with white gravy, of course!)

Tomorrow – off to Missoula!
