Beer makes perfect sense

You quickly switch to beer because it’s cheaper, more parents have beer in the house, and few teenage boys drink wine.

It’s good until it isn’t

Mt Reynolds in the rear view mirror. The solo summit feels extraordinary. Never thought i could summit, let alone solo summit.

No one starts out thinking, “I want to become addicted.”

Happy present moment?

Returning from airport rental car contract renewal, decided to drive around Columbia Falls – places i never had time to visit before.
  • Stumbled upon…
  • An old bridge with a storied past, no longer serving it’s purpose.
  • This tree inspires me.
  • Tenacious.
  • The stories this bridge’s vision, design, construction, hope, actual use, and demise could tell.
  • Context with different angle.

Imagine a world without

Mountains
Barely noticeable, that’s me lower center, climbing up.
  • Steve, foreground. The summit, 9,156′, is the small rock pile upper right.
  • Pausing to drink in the perfect, no wind and warm, weather.
  • The Lightfoot Family (L-R): Barley, Ian, and Wilden, from Pixar’s Onward.
  • Love when others feel free to take and share these kind of photos.
  • Cory the Manticore and Laurel Lightfoot.
  • Heavy Runner, bottom right and Going-To-The-Sun Mountain, top right.
  • Russell and Carl. Clements Mountain, left.
  • Blindspot, acting like a kid and playing with toys.
  • Perfect weather, clear sky, no wind, warm temps, altitude, time.
  • Love the Pixar story, UP.

Imagine a world without Jesus.

How many reputations?

  • Context.
  • In the absence of supplies and convenience, use what’s around you. This is the outer gift wrapping.
  • The lightweight, low cost, hand-picked-with-love gifts. GNP stickers.
  • Personalized notes. PS. i always travel with some post-it notes in every daypack.
  • Actual “desk” location and view.
  • Almost back to Chalet to deliver the “gift bag” before leaving Granite until 2021.
  • Time-stamping Glacier 2020. How can i not?
Swiftcurrent Mountain and final day at Granite.

Walked the final approach a different way than ever before. Love the angle.

How many reputations do you have? You have one with everyone you know. Reputation is not one size fits all. Thank goodness.
