in and around Blanchard, Idaho

We left Whitefish, Montana on Friday and drove to Idaho. Beautiful drive. Sad to leave Montana, we really loved it. We've been in Blanchard, Idaho visiting John and Cari . We had a wonderful time and are now in Portland, Oregon. We had such a good time with our friends, they showed us all over their beautiful town and all around the area! Met lots of their friends and really enjoyed that too.

This is John and Cari's view from the front of their house

John and Cari took us to soooooooo many lakes, I'm not sure which one this is, they were all beautiful

Flathead Lake, Montana

We drove from Whitefish to Polson today, such a gorgeous drive. Went to a museum in Polson called Miracle of America, very funky museum, has a lot of crazy but fun stuff to see. The rest of the pictures are of Flathead Lake and the area around that.




































































Whitefish, Montana and a little more of Glacier

We're leaving Glacier today, but didn't want to leave before we were able to go on a hike, it had been raining too hard before, but we were able to go on a beautiful hike before we headed for Whitefish, Montana. This is such a gorgeous park, it's hard to leave.
