Great Falls Day 2

We got up this morning and the rain had stopped sometime during the night.The clouds were still dark and ominous and looked like rain at any time. The temperature was 57 and the wind was blowing at 40 miles per hour. I slapped together two ham sandwiches in the car, We had our two small bags of chips. We ate it in the car out of the wind and it was just fine.
We went to another intertretive center about Lewis and Clark. This one was really excellent. I little different slant than the last one. We went to see the five falls that they encountered. It's a wonder that they didn't turn around and go home.But they managed to portage around them.
One of the interpreters was from Chicago. He went to Riverview and Lane Tech High Scool. I went to Alvernia and shared the bus with all the Lane Tech boys. I think he was a little before my time. Reminisced with him for a few minutes and then explored the center. It was better then the one in Bismarck.
We decided to go to the local show. We saw Robin Hood and it was very good. I was prepared not to like the movie and I turned out liking it very much.Cate Blanchet put in a very good performance.Tomorrow we will have to get up and get out. They don't have a complimentary breakfast here. This is the first one that didn't feed us breakfast. We were "forced" to go to McDonalds. We will have to do that again tomorrow. We had no dinner tonight except show popcorn and some trail mix. It was plenty.
Tomorrow it is on to Spokane.
