What a beautiful, blessed Sabbath. We choose to spend it out in nature. So we went to Glacier National Park. We were already in the southeast corner.
We took the "Going to the Sun" road. We could only go in 16 miles, because the road is closed for the winter. It was foggy going up, but the sun was shining when we came back.
It was interesting seeing the big poles by the road. They had to be 20' high, at least. That was so when they plowed the snow, they know where they put the edge of the road.
We've noticed yellow pine trees for several days. Today I found out that they are Larch Pine trees. They start turning yellow around the first of October and they drop their needles. Come spring they start over with new green needles. They also have very thick bark, so they won't usually burn in a forest fire. Neat! (Nature 101)
We've narrowed our pictures down to 11 to share. Just so you'll know, the one of the rocks is for my grandchildren. They do like rocks. And I thought the burnt trees were interesting. The rest should be fairly self-explanatory. If not, ask, I can tell you more than you'd ever want to know.
We were 50 miles miles from Canada, as the crow flies, but 100 or more by road. We saw several deer, but NO bear, mountain goats, moose or dinosaurs.
Oh yea, we did work this evening too. We had a nice sale at the Church. Our trailer was even crowded at times. We met some very nice people, very friendly.
