Adventure

It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power" Alan Cohen

Waterton National Park is not to be missed

5/24/2016  Tuesday  Start: Glacier National Park, MT   End: Waterton National Park, Alberta, CN

Of course, the day we leave the sun came out and the mountains were glorious! 
Morning at St Mary's Campground
As we drove to cross the border at Port of Chief Mountain we were presented with soaring peaks with their tips covered in snow.  The border crossing was uneventful, with some paperwork for Mike’s shotgun completed in short order. 

We are staying one night at Waterton National Park, Alberta, Canada.  It is high end, with hot showers (yeah!), full hook ups, spacious parking and drop dead gorgeous scenery.  I can’t get enough of the mountains!  

We took a 4 km hike to the Bertha Falls.

We walked to the village that adjoins the park and had some huckleberry frozen yogurt.  Later we luxuriated in the hot water of the showers and had a home cooked meal.  Mike did the laundry while I cleaned house and baked some cornbread.  Mike then got to watch some TV and I figured out the wi-fi to bring our posts up to date while sitting in the recliner outside in the evening sun.  Absolute heaven.
