Road Trip Home: Day 5

2015 August 10
by Stanley Quan

This day was mostly driving, as we went from Badlands to Emigrant, Montana, a little town where we stayed the night before heading into Yellowstone the next morning.

We passed through a lot of the great plains during the drive.

There were big hay bales in farming fields. There were cows.

Our airbnb stay was in a tipi that night! When I was researching where to stay, I saw “tipi”, and couldn’t pass it up. Our host let us take his canoe out on the pond by his property so we did that for a bit. It was a relaxing place to be out on the water with nature surrounding us – mountains, trees, big blue sky.

We slept in our sleeping bags in the tipi and it was surprisingly comfortable. The tipi had a hole up top for air and some along the sides, but it still kept the bugs out.
