Kevin Montgomery fights Bugs on the way to Lima

Hello, this is Kevin Montgomery calling in from Lima, MT. Getting ready to finish up the last 60 or so miles in MT tomorrow morning early. Covered about 155 miles today. It was definitely an interesting day. Woke up and it was below freezing. I camped on the bottom of Fleecer and had the climb in the morning. So a little chilly waking up out of bivy sack in that. Also my sleeping bag is only related to like 45 degrees. It was certainly not a comfortable night. I would day it got into the high 80s at one point today. Quite the range. Nothing a whole lot to mention. Went through a storm of bugs near Grant. Basically, the bugs were so thick that it felt like it was like raining on my arms because it was hitting my body with such a frequency. That was like that for over 2 miles. Bascially, my hands were acting like windshield wipers wiping the bugs off my arms and legs pretty quickly. Anyways, feel shockingly good. I think I finally hit that threshold when you stop feeling pain and turn into an engine. I heard a rumor that some people are only 65-70 miles ahead of me so I think I'm going to try to start making a bigger push ahead on the days to come. I think I'm going to eat something. Bye.
