We woke up to snow this morning and it is cold. We went to Waterton Glacier Park today in Alberta.
We have seen a few animals and some of them let us get close enough to take some good pictures.
We are camping at a Glacier National Park campground. We are glad for the furnace.
Until next internet hookup. Bye Bye

The night before the breakfast, we had a grandkids sleepover and all the girls had their nails done by each other. They are stars and here they made one and below is another one.
The vintage playhouse and some kids having fun.

We have had a nice afternoon in Glacier National Park. The Going to The Sun Highway was not open all the way because of an avalanche this winter. It was disappointing since this was the reason we wanted to go to Glacier. We went on a scenic road by the name of Many Glaciers. We also went to Babb, Montana, which has another entrance to the Park. We saw a moose, and about 20 mountain sheep.

We will head toward Waterton, Alberta, to the International Peace Park tomorrow. We plan to stay overnight, then head to Calgary, which is only 26 miles from Waterton Park. We will be with friends Gary and Ann on Sunday night.

We have been on the road a few days. This is a typical scene as we traveled around Cheyenne. We are enjoying Teton National Park and Yellwstone National Park. We have camped here for two days. We went to Yellowstone today. We saw fabulous scenery, interesting wildlife and the crowds were not huge. This mountain range was seen on the way to Tetons yesterday. We have seen hundreds of Elk, and here are a few we saw yesterday in the park.

These are alpine flowers from the tundra at 8000 + feet height. The yellow ones are the size of my little finger nail.
