Glacier National Park

We went on a 3 week road trip and visited Glacier, Yellowstone, Mt. Rushmore, Nauvoo, Crazy Horse Monument, and probably a few others I forgot to mention. Out of all of the National Parks Glacier (located in Montana) was by far my most favorite one. I was born and raised in Alaska, and it reminds me of home! It was glorious. It was a plethora of waterfalls, rivers, lakes and beauty, beauty, beauty....mmmmm. You are allowed to fish there, but no hunting coyotes and boy, didn't they know it!!! There were wildflowers everywhere...I could go on. The family picture on our blog was in Glacier on our way to Avalanche lake. Avalanche Lake is also all the pics you will see of the boys playing. It was my type of paradise. We took some pretty looooong hikes, but were able to see some wonders. I think we hiked about 20 miles total when we were there. The kids were troopers, as well as Hunters, Trappers, Fishers, Riders...haha! Enjoy the pics. I will also be posting ones of Yellowstone, Crazy Horse and of course Nauvoo, which I also loved and adored.

Your slide show was great. I can see why you loved growing up in Alaska. My dad would have itching to get his hands on a gun to take care of that coyote! I thought he looked pretty sneaky myself.
