Missoula, MT to Glacier National Park, MT
Woke up early and went for a nice hike near Jeff's house. Found a spot under a bridge, next to a stream and played ukulele for a good hour or so. The acoustics were fantastic down there and I could have stayed all day. My stomach, however, did not agree. It doesn't appreciate music unless it is the music of food being consumed. So I fed myself, refilled my growing pile of waterbottles, and drove north. The drive was, of course, beautiful. Every turn you take in the mountains seems like the most incredible sight you have seen - each time. Haha. Makes for a lot of picture-stops;) When I finally did manage to make it to Glacier, I really wasn't prepared for the wild glory of it. Those mountains really do suck you in. Unfortunately evening was quickly approaching so my excursions were short hikes and a little bit of a shuttle ride with driver Barney-from-Idaho-now-Montana. Since park camping costs money, and sleeping in my vehicle is FREE - I drove just outside the park limits and crashed in the good ole SUV for the night.
