Glacier National Park was everything people had said and we had hoped it would be!! Yesterday we spent all day driving through Montana and Canada viewing the majestic splendor that the Lord had prepared for us that day. It was "indescribable", as Chris Tomlin would say, and we couldn't help but blast out praises to the Creator of the universe for His beautiful mountains, valleys, rock plateaus, forests, meadows, glaciers, waterfalls and animals that we saw. Our first animal sighting was a moose. She (I think) was playing in the water in a shallow pond and nibbling on the underwater plants that she pulled up. Most of us had never seen a moose before and it was really awesome! She almost seemed to pose for all of us on-lookers as we all gathered along the roadside to get pictures. Our first attempt to drive over "The Road to the Sun" was thwarted due to snow fall and rock slides that had closed part of the road so we decided to take the long way around to get to the Canadian side of Glacier. We took the "road less traveled" along the east of the park and it was a splendid view of rolling hills and meadows with looming mountain peeks off in the distance. It took us a couple of hours but we did make it into Canada where we spent a few hours in Waterton, Alberta taking in all of this cute little tourist town. It reminded us very much of Ouray, Colorado, being surrounded by huge mountains on every side and ginger-bread like buildings everywhere. We were able to return home via the famous "Road to the Sun" and it was the perfect time to see wildlife coming out to feed and play. A bear was right along the road foraging for berries and whatnots and we spent several minutes just enjoying him! Next we watched a female elk (a cow, least I offend any of you hunters out there) as she bounded at lightening speed through a meadow into a thicket of trees. After her, we saw big horn sheep and mountain goats a plenty! I really liked the big horn sheep and the majestic, proud way that he carried himself. Finally we saw a buck as we neared the end of the park and he topped off the perfect day. We came home to beans in the crock-pot (which had never tasted so good) and then went to the local grocery store for waffle cones packed with huckleberry ice cream :-)). Everyone went to bed content, joyful and full of praise for the memorable day we had had. Today we're going to try our hand at fishing again. Hopefully we will be as successful as our last fishing excursion! Maybe we'll have Montana fish for dinner tonight?!?
