Unexpected Detour: The Billings Episode
There I was, two days into a journey that was supposed to be my escape, my breath of fresh air after a grueling year. Instead, I found myself in Billings, Montana, camped out at my uncle’s place. You know, there’s a funny side to every mishap – here I was, stranded because my car decided to take an unscheduled break, but hey, at least I wasn’t stuck in a dingy motel in Nowheresville.
This trip, which started last Friday, was my much-needed escape. I had wrapped up a major project at work, and all I craved was some quiet time in Lambert, Montana. But as fate would have it, my excitement turned into a sleepless night, fiddling with plans on Google Calendar.
Saturday morning arrived with a flurry of packing and last-minute preps. By 9 AM, I was locking my door, car packed, ready for the road. But first, a pit stop at City Brew for my travel essentials – scones and coffee. The drive was smooth, peppered with brief visits to friends and family. That is, until 7:30 PM when my journey abruptly paused in Custer, Montana. Thanks to my car’s water pump, I ended up in Billings, unexpectedly extending my trip.
