We’ll miss you Glacier. We took the northern route back to Coeur d’Alene through Whitefish and Libby, Montana.

Back when we originally moved to CDA, Whitefish was where I wanted to move to. It’s a cute little mountain ski town. The girls were saying… “it reminds us of Truckee”.

We went to the Great Northern Railway Museum in town. It’s currently the most travelled train route in North America. And the stop in Whitefish, Montana is the most popular stop between Seattle and Chicago.

Whitefish is a great little town to stop through, cute downtown (including a great little thrift store where everyone scored) and yummy food.

We also stopped at Kootenai Falls near Libby. Kootenai falls is a sacred space for the Kootenai Indians. It also served as a geographic barrier between the 2 bands of the Kootenai Indians, those that lived above and below the falls. We happened to get there just as we saw some kayakers heading down the falls, very fun to watch. The swinging bridge was also quite fun.

Then met an old co-worker of Edwin’s for a beer and then some good friends for dinner.

the reason for so much western development
pretty sure Edwin wore the unimog sweatshirt today since he ran into one yesterday but wasn’t wearing it 😉

the swinging bridge does move quite a bit.
Vera pointed out that these are the bridges in movies that always “snap”
are you enjoying the walk Daisy?
