From The Previous Photo, The Camera Has Swung To The Left About 45 Degrees, To Reveal A Yellow Flowering Plant And Light Blue Sage Is Seen, In A West View Looking Over The Yellowstone River Valley, From Interstate 94 Rest Area, 24 Miles West Southwest Of Forsyth, MT .
….This Is Typical Scenery Over The Yellowstone River & Yellowstone River Valley, But Where Is The River? The River Itself Is Not Visible, But It Is Nestled In The Trees At The Lowest Place, Beyond The Fence & Smooth Gras Field At Right Edge Of Photo. .


…."I want to pursue further now that same ghost that Phædrus pursued...rationality itself, that dull, complex, classical ghost of underlying form.
....This morning I talked about hierarchies of thought....the system … . Now I want to talk about methods of finding one’s way through these hierarchies...logic.
….Two kinds of logic are used, inductive and deductive.
" [The Narrator continues by expanding on these two logics. ]

After Miles City, MT, At The Next Interstate 94 Rest Area, Which Is ~5.5 Miles West Southwest of Custer, MT. Poetically reflecting the necessary but boring Interstate-94 Travel through this landscape, the ZMM Narrator discusses a similarly necessary but boring topic .. “logic” .. which is the “ghost .... of.... rationality".
….************** …
… For a long time I could not understand the meaning of the Narrator’s "ghost of rationality". But in the passage above we see for example, that the Narrator simply means all the assertions and habits of science, that make us Moderns who we are.
….************** …

…. NEW TOPIC: Interstate I-94 closely follows the southern edge of the Yellowstone River all the way from Glendive, MT, at Eastern Border ot Montana, to Billings. However, as you see in /\ Above /\ Photo, the river itself is not at all seen, or even hinted at! This is despite the fact that the /\ Above /\ Photo shows a view right over the river! This is usually the case in this part of Montana, for any river or stream.
….Growing up in Ohio, and living all my life in lands not at all as flat, or dry, as this region of Montana, I was caught by surprised by the my NON-ability to readily see rivers, or streams, in this wide expanse of relatively flat land\ .
…It took me some tine "getting used to" this. I had to learn the hard way (i.e. not finding good photos), that often the only indicators of streams or rivers, is a low line of trees, in an otherwise wide sea of grass.
….This NON-ability to readily see rivers, or streams, is not at all the prior experience, for a person like myself, who grew up the Eastern part of USA, where there is abundant rainfall.
…. NON-ability to see the river in /\ Above /\ Photo, is especially true because of the high dense trees on both sides of the river. Examples of these trees at the river will be seen in my photos taken from bridge crossings previous and upcoming.

…DATE-LINE: July 25, 2021. by Henry Gurr.
MONTANA ZMM ROUTE RESEARCH PART ONE: As Seen By HSG in 2002, 2006, & 2019.)
….Back in July 2002, as much as possible I tries to find the “Non Interstate”, lesser traveled roads that Robert Pirsig might have followed, in 1968.
….As I drove West on I-94 from Miles City, MT, the first place I saw to turn off, was to exit the interstate at Forsyth, MT, onto the marginal road (which was the pavement of Old US-10, and followed this older road thru Sanders, MT. and Hysham, MT.
….However In August 2019, again traveling these same roads, I discovered that =>.”Traveling West from Miles City, MT would have to be I-94. But The ZMM Traveler can take the Exit at Hathaway (on to Graveyard Creek Road), which will lead to Old US-10 thru Rosebud, MT. this Old US 10 would be likely The ZMM Narrators choice thru to Hysham, MT.

…. RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT “NEW TAB” => To See Google Street View (GSV) Photograph of => Twisting Hilly Road, On Old US-10 Between Forsyth, MT & Miles City, MT. ….AND … Here this stretch of “Old Hwy 10” is much more enjoyable , and was what Henry Gurr experienced, when he drove Prius through this area, Aug 2019. This Blue Link above ALSO has instructions to “GSV Drive” this highway
