Traveling by guess and by gosh
by Richard L. Weaver II
Excerpt:
In Lolo, Montana, on September 9, 2005, we stopped in a field 12 miles southwest of Missoula where we discovered that Lewis & Clark had camped there exactly (to the very day) 200 years before in 1805. At this spot, called Traveler’s Rest (http://www.travelersrest.org/), were tents, well-marked pathways, people in costumes, large areas roped off for visitor parking, and we had no idea what was going on when we stopped. Being very early in the day — before they had begun charging for admission to the grounds — we parked and walked throughout the whole area. I even had my picture taken sitting on a tree stump exactly where their latrine was located.
