We left Whidbey a week ago. Sorry to leave, but excited to be back on the road. We took Hwy 20 east through the Cascades. Pretty exciting going thru the mountains. Alex did a great job driving. The motorhome went up without breaking a sweat.
It's scary sitting in the passenger seat as everything on the side of the road looks like you are going to hit it or, that you are going to fall down the side of the mountain. After awhile Chris got use to it, but still screamed every so often.
We arrived in Columbia Falls, ND after two days on the road. We got up early the next morning and headed to Glacier National Park in the car. The drive through the park is wonderful. Chris was still screaming once in awhile as in some places they were replacing the road where it had fallen off the side of the mountain. To say that we were driving close to the edge would be an understatement.
Glacier is everything one would imagine. Words won't do it justice and neither will our pictures but some of them turned out pretty good. We did get up close to a mountain goat and her baby. They were on the side of the road waiting for the traffic to ease. I hope they got a chance to get away from the road. Everyone stopped and got out of their cars to take pictures. We didn't but I got a couple pics as we drove by them.
We were very fortunate that it was a spectacular day at Glacier. Click the link and choose slideshow. I put the very best pics in this album. There were a lot of pictures taken. I tried to be picky on what to show you.
