Swiftcurrent lake near Many Glaciers Lodge
This was about a 4 mile hike (or so they say) it was a beautiful walk and good trail but it was a work out. As you can see Frank caught the elusive "twig fish" we did not know that they had those outside of Utah and although his shirt says he would sell me for a beer, luckily for me it didn't come to that. :)




HIKING, who da thunk it

Relaxing evening
So now we are going to sleep, we can hear the river outside our window. Just a little reading and maybe an episode of the vicar and then nothing but the sound of the rushing river. Good night to all, wish you could see what we have seen today.
No lions, no tigers, but oh my BEARS
Montana adventure
First day we spent the morning in Great Falls. We started at the Visitors Center which was great, they were very helpful and gave us directions and maps to what we wanted to see. Went to the "great falls", it was truly amazing to think of what Lewis & Clark accomplished given the challenges they faced. We then went to the Lewis & Clark Interprative Center this was very cool, kids would love this.
We headed on Highway 89 towards Glacier, beautiful scenery, reminded me somewhat of Texas I can see why they call Montana "Big Sky" country. Checked in to the lodge that was built in 1913. Very clean, comfortable rooms but it is a lodge, no TVs in the room. Headed out to explore and at Two Medicine lake after entering the Park Frank was able to "wet a line", you don't need a fishing license inside the Park, then on the way back we took a dirt road and saw two black bears. Beautiful, amazing day. Here are a few pics
