I woke up to a chilly morning. It was tough crawling out of the covers.
Before I crawled out of my truck, I looked outside and noticed a Robin sitting on the handlebars of my bicycle. Two minutes later, a baby Robin flew over and sat on the picnic table beside my bike.
Robin brings the following wisdom:
- happiness,
- change of seasons,
- power in music.
I started my day with my daily meditation above. I wondered if a new family of friends was on the horizon. I was definitely beginning to see a pattern in the cards I chose, but I decided to stop trying to interpret them and let the meditations and the last days of my journey unfold naturally. Whatever happens, happens, I thought.
I checked out of my little piece of heaven and hit Interstate 90, going west toward Bozeman, Montana.
I kept seeing all sorts of messages from spirit on the road this day.
I stopped in Bozeman and found a nice gym for a much-needed workout. Afterward, I ate a bite and drove to Helena-Hand-Basket, Montana. When I pulled up to the Helena Visitors Center, it was closed, but a Magpie did everything possible to get my attention.
Magpie brings the following wisdom:
- balance of light and dark,
- communication,
- rituals,
- ceremonial,
- prophecy,
- intelligence.
Since I didn’t connect with Helena in any way, I continued on to Missoula, Montana. I had several friends who wanted me to spend some time in Missoula, so I decided to get there a few days early to check things out. Upon arriving in Missoula, I realized I had driven 2,203 miles in just six days. I needed a break from the road. At this point, I had only 549 more miles to go to reach Portland, Oregon.
I spent a few hours exploring Missoula, and my first impression was excellent. I found a campground and settled in for the night.
