A whole heckin’ unexpected day in Helena
I woke up early champing at the bid to call mechanics around town to see who could help me. After a few phone calls I managed to find one that had time to look at my car that morning. I took the car over to them, and they quickly noticed that the A/C compressor needed to be replaced.
I walked to Steve’s Cafe for a denver omelette, hash browns, and delicious sourdough toast with marionberry jam. While I was eating, the mechanics called and said that they could do it but would need to overnight the part meaning I would have to stay an extra night.
I went back to my room and wallowed for a while. I read a lot of my book and took 3 whole naps. I got my shit together, walked into town, and got some stellar green curry and a cucumber roll at Suki Café. Everyone working there was spectacular, so sweet, and wished me luck on my travels.
A storm came in, thankfully I missed the rain but it was so windy! I stopped at the Gold Bar for a few $1.50 whiskey sodas. I read a bunch, talked to a few people, and watched a few people stumble around who were waaaayyy to drunk. The bartender’s name was Gigi she had red wavy hair down to her butt and was tough as nails. Pretty sure she would have fought someone for me if needed.
Took my butt home and tried to keep it positive!
