Happy Birthday to Mama Bear!

I realize that Odie already posted a birthday message for our family earlier this month but today is my Mother's birthday so I want to wish her a very Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday, Mama Bear!

I love you very much, Mom, and I hope you have a great day! You have been a great Mother me. Thanks for not pinching my head off when you should have when I was a boy!

Love,
Davy

More Pictures of Montana Scenery

Here are a few more pictures taken on our drives in Montana.

Sunrise just north of the town of East Glacier Park on the crooked Hwy 49


A foggy and gorgeous morning at Many Glacier in Glacier National park. There are Grizzly spotted regularly in this area but not by us!



Yes, Ashlee, we are bundled up and cold on July 27th!


Next nine Pictures - Taken on the Going to the Sun Rd. in Glacier National Park. The Park was prettier than we have ever seen it! It was foggy on the East side and as we crossed Logan Pass which is on the Continental Divide the clouds began to roll back to reveal the dazzling sunshine on the West side.










The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation is in Missoula. These are the people responsible for reintroducing Elk in Kentucky and several other states the last 25 years. This is an awesome place!


The most awesome mount! It is just inside the front door of the visitors center.


Kelly Jo said this must be the rainbow capitol of the world. I lost track of how many rainbows we saw that day including at least two double rainbows.

Day Trips in Montana

The weather out here in the great Northwest has been beautiful! Kelly Jo and I have been taking advantage of the weather and the great scenery here during the day. We have taken several day trips to see the sights. Some trips we have taken with the Metzger's and some we have taken by ourselves.

In the last several days we have been to the Big Hole Battlefield, Skalkaho Falls, Flathead Lake, in and around Glacier National Park and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.

Here are a few pictures of some of the awesome beauty in and around Montana! I'll add more tomorrow! (Edit: Or maybe later today)

Beautiful Skalkaho Falls


The Metzger's


The KBoggs's


Flathead Lake - The biggest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi and the prettiest lake I have ever seen!


Next four pictures - Hwy. 2 around the southern edge of Glacier National park. It is an awesome drive.




More Pictures to be posted tomorrow.
