First days in Glacier


Will….

        Yesterday we woke up at 6 AM because we wanted to get a spot at the Apgar Campground in West Glacier.  It is first come first serve. We did get a spot and while we made breakfast at our new spot, people circled like vultures looking for a spot. It is a nice campground -and has been full since we have been here.  We relaxed and went into the village.  We went swimming at Lake Macdonald and after dinner, we went to the Campfire program.  Ranger Liz was one of the best we have seen.  She really got into her descriptions of the nighttime animals of the park.  We really loved some of the stories she told us about skunks and the antics

      Today we slept in and I woke up at 9. We took a shuttle to Lake McDonald Lodge. We got to the shuttle station 20 minutes early but when the shuttle got to the station WE DIDN’T FIT ON IT. We had to wait 30 more minutes until another came.  When we finally got to the Lodge it was lunch, so we ate at the lodge.

         When we got back to the R.V., it was time for our scenic float trip with dinner included.  We didn’t see any wildlife but the Flathead river crystal clear and the scenery was spectacular!  Our guide Jeanette cooked us dinner and the food was excellent!   She was super nice and really personable. We swam lots even though it was really cold. It was a really cool trip.

        Our trip is going really well and everyone is safe and in good spirits. Keep commenting!!
