A Glacier/Waterton Summer

We had a fun summer, one that took us to Coeur D'Alene, Montana, and even BC.

Still though, no matter where we went, I was always excited to get back to my home, to the familiar national parks that we are so lucky to live so close to.   

The following pictures are some of the photos that I've entered this year in various photo contests.   

Whether a photo actually wins or not is no longer the point.    

I just really do love visiting these special two places!

Photo taken near the Many Glacier Hotel

This photo was taken at our families favorite spot in Waterton (or one of them;) - Pass Creek!

This is a photo of "Lunch Creek" located in Glacier National Park. 

John grew up picnicking with his family at Lunch Creek.

(What a lucky childhood eh:)

Prince of Whales Hotel in Waterton.   

Every once in a while we spend the night in Waterton, and the sunrises are always something glorious!

Driving along the "Going to the Sun Road."   At Sunset, by the way;)  

We've driven along the Camron Road more times then I can count, and only recently have I noticed this beautiful waterfall just off the side of the road.

Walking along the Trail of the Cedars in Glacier National Park.

Our kids weren't too excited about the hike we forced them to endure, but they sure loved playing and exploring Bertha Falls once we'd arrived;)

When we visit Many Glacier, we often simply enjoy a stroll around Swift Current Lake.   

I love looking at these pictures and recalling the beautiful summer moments that each photo portrays.   I'm a lucky girl to get to live where I do!
