Last night we made it as far as Helena, another long day.  We got up early this morning, once again, knowing that we had about 4 hours ahead of us before we reached the border. As we got closer to the border there were signs along the road saying the border crossing can be busy during peak hours, be prepared for a delay.  Being cocky, we thought, just how busy can it be, we should be ahead of the rush leaving that early.  As we crested the hill going into Sweetgrass we had to slow down and then stop.  Apparently a lot of snowbirds had the same idea and got up earlier than us, the line up was over 1/2 mile long and it was just creeping along.  Two hours and ten minutes later we finally crossed the border and about an hour later we were in Lethbridge.  Karen and the girls (Alyanna and Kelsey) drove in from Medicine Hat for a visit and brought supper with them.  We were sure glad to see them again.
