Summer 08 Vacation




Well, our annual wedding anniversary and Roys Birthday trip included the Boys this time, we have been going to Glacier each year for a hike with my Dad and Roy, this year we decided that both boys are big enough for a Glacier National Park hike and took them. We went to our favorite campground at Duck Lake Lodge, which is on the reservation and hidden so not much crowds at all and lots of wide open space! Nana and Papa were going to come, because Papa loves hiking as much as me, however, being such a good Papa, when they were taking care of the boys while I was in Canada,he went go carting with both boys and did not heed to the go-cart sign that said do not ride if you have a bad back. He did and now does and will probably need back surgery due to too much fun go carting! Sorry Papa. So the r4's were on our own and we made the boys hike 5 miles. Along the way we ate thimbleberries and huckleberries, that kept the boys hiking without too much complaining. We went up to Many Glacier and planned on hiking all around swiftcurrent and Josephine lakes, but due to a bear sighting we hiked up the side of swiftcurrent lake to the top of Josephine lake and back down the same trail again.
