Glacier

This weekend I'm heading over to Billings to see Beth Moore with her Living Proof Live!! I can't tell you how EXCITED I am! I've been dying to go see her, and now she's actually coming close enough for me to go. Not many events flood the Montana area, and when they do, they go to the thriving metropolis of Billings (with a whopping 100,000 population, our largest "city")...aaaaaalllll the way across the state. But that's ok.

I'm meeting up with my dear friend Melissa so we can go together. Can. Not. Wait!

And speaking of Beth, who lives in Houston, please remember those in the wake of Ike. So many people's lives have been affected.

Now, since I'll be gone I'm posting this for your viewing pleasure. Here are pictures of our trip to Glacier National Park...uh...three weeks ago. If you're ever in Montana, after you come see us of course, you must see Glacier. And Yellowstone.

Breathtaking!






As you travel along the Going To The Sun Road (yes, that's what it's called) for several miles you're scaling the side of the mountain. Wall on one side, steep cliff on the other. And you can see in this picture where they cut a tunnel under the road to allow the waterfall to continue on its way:

If you're afraid of heights (like I am) your best plan of action is to grip the door with one hand, and grip the arm of your seat (or your husbands arm) with the other hand. Be sure your knuckles are white, or you're not doing it properly. And. Don't. Look. Down.

Well, that won't work. You have to look down at least a few times or you'd miss this:

But once you cross the Continental Divide you're not scaling the wall and you can start breathing again.

And even check out some of the mountain lakes:

Isn't it gorgeous?!

You can also travel north and head into Canada, eh? No way, eh! But don't you need a passport for that now?

Have a good weekend and I'll see you Monday!!!
