Our epic hike led up to one of the most gorgeous natural landscapes I had ever led eyes on - Grinnell glacier. It was heaven on earth. The turquoise blue waters and the glacier carved mountain views created a stunning backdrop worthy of being on any calendar. I felt like I was in another world. It was so unlike the world I grewup in - a world surrounded by concrete, graffiti, trash, humans, and pollution. This is what I live for. This is what life is all about.
The next day we drove far up north near Canada to Kentla lake. It was a long ways away, but this was another top memorable life experience. We had almost the entire lake to ourselves. I used our paddle board to drift into the middle of the lake, and I didn't see another soul. It was one of the most beautiful and serene moments of my life - calming floating in the middle of a lake in Glacier National Park and having it all to myself. I was surrounded by trees, crystal clear water, and the call of the birds. I could have floated there forever. I felt so free and alive.
On our way home we stoped by Idaho and spent a few days with Jasons' dad in McCall Idaho. The boys got to drive a boat and Butch also took us on a tour of the area. It was also gorgeous and made for some fun memories for the boys. I started coming down with a cold, and we were staying in a family member's camper. I was uncomfortable and stressed these last few days, but I'm grateful the boys got to make some fun memories with Butch.

Beautiful Kentla Lake that we had almost all to ourselves. This was one of the most magical and amazing moments of this trip, or of any moment I have spent at a National Park. It was breathtaking.
The water was crystal clear |

Grinell Glacier - This area was so beautiful is seemed fake. The vibrant colors and the Jurassic Parkeque landscape - It was unlike anything I had ever seen.
