Chapter 6: Bozeman, Montana

September 9, Day 19

Bozeman, MT

Bozeman, Montana. I like it here. I’m currently staying approximately a mile from downtown and it is a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. The graveyard across the street might have something to do with it. Maybe. Downtown Bozeman is not too big and is a nice, interesting place to walk around in. A lot of people bike here; even more than what I had seen in Portland. People are friendly and try to engage in conversations, although my awkwardness offers resistance to it. Had an awesome breakfast at Jam! which was recommended by my Airbnb host. After breakfast, I spent a lot of time browsing through two local book shops (I get stuck in these places). Walked around a bit more, had another huckleberry ice cream (the best), then went to the Museum of the Rockies and then finally chilled at Zocalo Coffee House.

I also just finished planning my trip to Yellowstone. I decided to stay there for 4 nights instead of my original plan of 2 nights there, then 2 nights in Grand Teton. I think I’d enjoy it more if I focused my time in one place, trying to truly get to know it as much as I can, rather than spreading out my days in two places. Although Grand Teton seems like a very promising place to explore too. For now, I just have to pick one and stick with it.
