Sorry we missed a day but the internet service Cyndy received with her room is VERRRRY slow so we finally gave up last night. It was 9:00 and dinner somehow seemed more important. Because we're so far north and on the very edge of the mountain time zone the sun doesn't set until around 10 so it's throws your sense of time way off.
Anyway, take a look at Tillie's big brother. They run these tour mobiles up over the Columbia glacier icefields. The temp. was around 40F with a breeze so you can understand why there's still so much snow. They have signs posted along the way to the foot of the glacier showing how much it has receded in the past 100 years. We opted not to take the bus ($38 per person to ride over snow seemed a bit excessive). We walked UP to the base along a trail they provide so we could all say we'd touched a glacier. Everything in this area seems to be either UP or DOWN - no flat ground.
Today we went on a short hike up Johnston Canyon (UP & DOWN of course) and saw some beautiful waterfalls. Then on to Radium Hot Springs to soak in the public hot springs. I'm sure we now look (or at least act) 10 years younger. Mary's appetite continues to flourish.
Tomorrow Cyndy flies back to Philly and we crank up Tillie and head to Montana and Glacier National Park.
