Time (again) to look for flights to Kalispell

Grinnell Glacier Trail
We rounded the bend at the rock outcropping and almost walked into the Ram, who at the time was on the trail walking towards us. We quickly retreated before taking any photos. After this photo, we retreated even more.

 

Grinnell Glacier Hike
The Ranger-led hike caught up to us. We waited in stillness for 10 minutes before two hikers came from the opposite direction to give the “all-clear”.

 

Time (again) to look for flights to Kalispell.

May, June, July, August, and September.

Five trips.

This is the last Summer i’m planning to visit.

Why?

Because on paper, my 10-year goal to do everything in life i want to do before my 60th birthday has Summer 2018 as the final Summer available.

Literally guaranteed, you worry about what others think

Live like you mean it.

Battle cry?

Inspiring slogan that is designed for the lucky few, and certainly not you?

The fear conjured up from worrying about what others think of you can destroy your spirit.

This irrational fear can also keep you from feeling joyful, generous, free, and convinced.

i’m living my life as if June 8, 2019 is my last day.

Why then?

It’s my 60th birthday.

No male on my Dad’s side has lived past 60.

PS. Yes, my Dad physically lived past 60, but by the time he was 60, early onset, rapid progression Alzheimers robbed him of knowing who we were.

As scary as this sounds

As scary as this sounds…

i’m putting all my proverbial eggs in one basket…

i live by the serenity prayer (not perfectly, but way better than ever before).

And enjoy the cooler temps.

And God’s divine providence.

The little boy asked a simple question, “What are you doing?”

Almost instantly, “I’m taking their senior yearbook picture and then we’re doing a class photo too.”

Another guy, who i later discovered was the boy’s Dad, offered to take a couple pictures of me doing my art.
