Living the good life

6 days since my last post and a lot has changed for Norm and I. Our last camping gig was in Polson at Flathead Lake, which was a lot of fun. On Friday we moved to The Lodge at Whitefish Lake and met up with friends Tony and Sheri. The Lodge surpassed our expectations with excellent service and an exceptional room with a fireplace, small kitchenette, tasteful decor and a large bath. A great choice.

The lodge sits nestled on the Lake surrounded by hills all around. There is a pool for swimming, hot tubs, boats for boating, jet ski's to rent and many places to sit and enjoy the scenery. We managed to have a fabulous time. it was Camping my style.

Monday we then moved to a cabin on Echo Lake. Echo Lake is a small lake very close to Flathead Lake in Big Fork, Montana. The cabin is a "cabin" in name only. It looks like a fine home that you would see in any magazine. Comfortable, cozy, and modern. We have a view of the lake from the deck and the dock and the sunsets are simply magnificent.
So, we are no longer roughing it and we will be here for the remainder of the week. Today we visited Glacier National Park, which has been a highlight of our trip for me.

I have been to the Rocky Mountain National Forest several times and it is one of my favorite places to go and be. Today I get to add Glacier to this list. We walked the trail to Hidden Lake from Logan's pass which was spectacular. The sights in this country are precious resources, beautiful little bits of awe to remind us of how special this life is, how beautiful it can be.

Being in the mountains recharges me. I have become a huge fan of Montana, what a vast and beautiful state.

It's late and this is a catch up blog. Goodnight, time for bed!

Peace and Love from Glacier

Did you know that the official name is the Glacier National Peace Park? How cool is that?
