This week went too fast and it is already time for me to drive Hana to the airport in Montana. We had a bit of time in the morning so we went to the farmers market in Kalispell, where we thought Hana’s flight departed. Big jars of honey, huckleberry everything, and autumn smiles back at me once more in the form of harvest produce: pumpkins, squash, corn, tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, and more. I got a ton of vegetables, the cherry tomatoes tasted like sugar they were so sweet, and honey whole wheat bread.
After that we realized that Hana’s flight departed from an airport 20 minutes away so we booked it back up the highway a bit and got her there just in the knick of time. So sad to say goodbye to my adventure buddy, the most helpful human in existence (I love you for it and I will forever hear “what can I do” echoing in my head).
Headed to a little town and got my oil changed, did my laundry at a laundromat, and got some local eggs and bacon and a few other groceries. From there I drove just a few more hours to Kootenay National Park in Canada, got to my campsite and cooked up some fairy eggplant, potato, tomato, and broccoli in my new mini cast iron skillet, with an egg and cheese on top. That’s gourmet vanlife eats right there.
