Its hard to believe that fall is just around the corner. We've spent most of the last month travelling. While it wasn't planned to be on vacation for 3 of the last 5 weeks, that is how it turned out. The posts below show just a few of the favorite images from our trip across Canada to Alaska (2 weeks) and then a week spent in Montana. It was wonderful getting to spend time with family members that we don't see to often. My aunt and uncle live north of Libby, MT while Dave has cousins in the Kalispell/Whitefish areas. We were thrilled to spend time with both sides of our family! We simply don't get to see them enough.
We also spent a few days in Glacier Park. The weather was perfect. It was cool at night and warm during the day. On Friday, there wasn't a cloud in the sky. It was simply perfect. We were so lucky to get to see the beautiful sights! As with our trip to AK, this was packed with animals. We had a number of bear encounters including a Grizzly bear on the road as we drove into the park Thursday night. We also had a black bear across the path during our trek to Red Rock Falls on Friday morning. Friday afternoon, we watched through the telephoto lens on the camera as a group of hikers encountered a mother black bear with three cubs. No worries, no hikers or bears were injured during these adventures. :) We also saw a few mountain goats precariously balanced on the edge of the mountain sides. They didn't seem to be aware that they were a few thousand feet up.
Our weekend was topped off with a wonderful afternoon and evening of fishing and family. Dave's two cousins, along with their families, took Saturday off to spend time with us. We had a great time learning to fly fish and simply enjoying the crystal clear (and COLD) waters of the area rivers. Many thanks to both Dwight and Darrin for making our stay memorable!
And now back to the grind! I have a few days in which to recover and get organized before I head off to Niagara Falls for a long weekend. While I will get to do a bit of sight seeing, it is primarily a business trip. I'll be attending the Transitions Lifestyle System certification course Fri - Sun. Five other members of my consulting/coaching team will also be attending! I'm really excited to have them learn more.

That's about all from here. I've got lots to do today. Keep in touch everyone!
