Look Ma! No hands! ... My hands never leave my arms ... even while Kendall is driving the boat! Behind them, Jordan is driving the other boat on Lake McDonald at Glacier, NP on July 5th, 2011. This was a 30 year remake when Bobby and Mugsy drove the motor boats on Lake McDonald in 1981!
Kendall and Alexander playing "hide and seek" inside this funny tree. It was completely hollowed out but still alive! It had leaves only up at the top. This was on the Cedar Tree Walk at Glacier.
Cedar Walk on Glacier was amazing...calm, peaceful, enveloping cedars and hemlocks, cool...Alexander's quote was great at the end of the hike..."I thought this was going to be a BORING hike along some plain old trees. It was awesome with rivers and tall trees and a boardwalk!"
Grandpa's quote for this picture of the very shallow root system for this tree that fell in the Cedar Walk was, "So YOU think you're having a bad hair day!"
Lake McDonald Kayaking 7/7/2011...amazingly beautiful! Peaceful, breathtaking with 100+ year-old "cottages" along the edges of the lake that were grandfathered into the park.
Jammer! With a roll-top roof so passengers could see the sights, these refurbished cars from their heyday in the 20s are fun to see driving the Highway to the Sun. It is so unusual that it is July 8th and the Highway to the Sun is not open yet due to 60-100 foot snowdrifts. It is the latest date known to not be open. We did travel 15 miles along the lake on the Highway to the Cedar Walk, which was very refreshing and beautiful.
"Ants on a log!" We are just about finished with our nature walk with Volunteer Ranger Denver from Hendersonville, NC who had lived in Richmond and Alexandria, VA. Further along we saw deer and a grey wolf before getting back to the Visitor Center.
