The Birds






We left Flathead Lake--such a beautiful place.



We made our way to Glacier Park. We're staying in the West Glacier KOA--the view is not quite the same as the last park. Note the burn pile and the old dumptruck and the junk. Oh well. If we look behind us the mountains are gorgeous. We think they installed these sites backwards.

The drive today wasn't too long, but it took us past a fond memory for me. The last time I was in Kalispell was my freshman year in college for the band tour. Today we drove past the church where we performed on that tour in 1964.


We got to our RV spot in plenty of time to do some touring. We went past this beautiful stream on our way to Lake MacDonald. This is a magnificient area. I recommend it to each of you.



At the lake we saw many stacks of rock like this left by earlier travelers here.

We came back to the RV's and made dinner (thanks to Barb).







As we sat there a zillion crows circled above us over and over until they settled in for the night.






After dinner we enjoyed a beautiful campfire as we watched the stars appear.


As we were sitting here waiting for a photo to upload, a fly appeared. As Gary held the flyswatter, waiting for it, the silly thing landed on the flyswatter! And it got away because he didn't know what to do with it!

Glad you're having such a nice time with good weather! I've been eating seafood whenever it sounds good and is locally caught. Tonight was Irish salmon in pasta in Derry, and I've had some really good chowders. Keep having fun!
