July 2012

It is hard going back and blogging for months at a time. So much happening this summer. I wanted to keep up, but I haven't so here we go for July.... now that it's the end of August....smile. 

 

July was a blur. Got together with Whitney and Lori for some post birthday, girl fun. Always love the 4th of July and celebrating our country and our dear Wes.  Terry played softball and won a silver and a gold medal. Pretty good for one tourney.  The Blue Angels and the air show came to town. Amazing.

 

We packed the truck one day spur of the moment, loaded our bikes and took off for Glacier National Park. IT WAS NOT DISAPPOINTING. Beautiful!! The day we arrived the famous "Going to the Sun" road was closed in the middle because of 13 mudslides the day before. It ended up being wonderful for us because they let us ride up on our bikes and we had the whole park to ourselves. It was uphill to the peak, but so worth it and we saw one other person the entire time. Thinking back after we started...hmmm....alone with the bears. We enjoyed scenic lakes, some kayaking, glacier hikes, wildlife spotting (goats, bighorn sheep, bear and her cubs, moose, deer, birds). Flathead Lake on the way to and from was great and all the little towns in Montana...oh, and of course, fresh raspberry pie and huckleberry shakes. Yummy.

 

Honestly, I know July was packed and can't even recall what else we had going on. That's why you don't procrastinate the record.
