Pink Unicorns are the Most Real Thing on the Planet

Greetings from Wolf Point, MT. It's been a slow week, with a combination of hail storms, 100+ degree weather, and winds blowing strongly in the opposite direction of us holding us up a bit. It looks as though we will finally leave MT tomorrow! woohoo! People continue to be awesome and nice. It's been interesting to see the ways things are different and the same in different places. Businesses that want to charge you to fill up water bottles, libraries that won't let you use internet without an address, the "Real Change not Spare Change" signs that "discourage panhandling" but encourage the use of the food bank and Salvation Army...because clearly they're all about real change...the anti-meth ads all over these rural parts, the ways we are taught to fear what we don't know and dehumanize and blame others. But we continue to be helped out in amazing ways. People are awesome.
It will be so exciting to reach a new state! MT is taking forever...we are melting in the heat today.
Take care of yourselves and others. Rock on.

-Kaite
