The Trip Begins

I've given you a litle history of this project, and a little history of the interstate system, so without further ado, here we go!

I left Mom and Dad's house on the morning of September 21, 2010, and headed northwest to Choteau, Montana, which is the northern terminus of US Highway 287.  Why did I pick 287 you ask?  Because it runs through some spectacular country, and because it begins and ends near places I need to go--the north end is near Mom and Dad, the south end near my home.
