Of all the memorable views, the best have been framed by Montana windows" ~ William Hjortsberg
If you’ve been reading this blog long, you know I have quite a love affair with Montana. Sometimes I pretend that I work for the Montana Dept of Tourism…
Here are some pics from the trip out there~
Riding horses at Great-Grandmas w/ Aunt Nancy leading…
perfect playing weather for playing outside
band concert in the park
fun times with cousins at the lake!
The carousel:
If you haven’t ever been to Glacier, you really must put it on your must-sees. I think it’s got to be one of the most beautiful places on Earth…
Logan was thrilled they named a pass after him :)
Look at the difference in the next 2 pictures. On the way up (Going to the Sun Road) it was sunny & 95 degrees and dropped 20 degrees on the way up to Logan pass.
The next day on the way down, it was cool, rainy, and even hailed. They say if you don’t like the weather in Montana, wait a few hours…
We went on up to Canada to visit my Grandma~
Old Chief Mountain:
Hello, Canada girls! Canadian junk food is the BEST! I could use some Smarties about now…
More Glacier Park on the way back:
Big Sky Country
Thanks for coming along!
Have you been to Montana or Alberta?
Do you live there?
Do you wish you lived there? ;)
My family and I went on a ski trip to Big Sky when I was in high school, and close to 15 years later I still have dreams of going back! And I've moved 2 gorgeous framed photos that I took from house to house to house over the years! Our Christmas card that year was my family on top of a mountain, my sister and I with snowboards strapped to our feet. I remember stepping (sliding) off the chairlift the first day, turning around and just staring. Sometimes it's nice to be reminded just how amazing our world can look.
ReplyDeleteI love your pictures of Glacier! After this visit, I did think that I could live in Alberta or Montana. It was so beautiful this year -- unusually green. Waterton was awesome, and we even got an overnight trip there without kids courtesy of my inlaws. :) We love Canadian junk food, too. So funny that we were there at the same time. It's beautiful country!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I just got back from a quick trip through Glacier to Kalispell- your post was very timely. We love it down in that Flathead /Whitefish area, but we also love living on the Prairies south of Lethbridge, Alberta. Also home of big skies and beautiful sunsets.
ReplyDeleteenjoyed your pictures too. Thanks for sharing your vacation with us.
We just got home from a week in Montana. My in-laws live there this time of year. I agree that it is one of the most beautiful places on earth! We spend every vacation talking about buying a cabin there.
