Waterton is a quiet, uncrowded National Park, offering the perfect place to view spectacular scenery and wildlife. In this breathtaking part of the world, the majestic Rocky Mountains rise suddenly out of the rolling prairies. Amid the peaks are the lakes of Waterton Lakes National Park, carved out of the rock by ancient glaciers. Old. We enjoyed a nice, two-hour boat ride on Waterton Lake yesterday:
We didn’t spot any bears, but we did see a bald eagle:
Afterward, we headed to the Prince of Wales Hotel for lunch. Built in 1927, this historical hotel sits high on a bluff overlooking the Waterton Village. And the food and conversation was excellent:
During a ride through lovely Waterton Village, we spotted a mule deer munching grass right in town! Next, we drove through Red Rock Canyon, but didn’t spot anything more than a few ground squirrels. Bugger. Where were the bears? Where were the moose???
Back at the CG, we had a short social gathering just before dinner here at the Barn. The food was great, but the entertainment afterward was even better! Mom, Dad, two sons (23 & 16), Grandpa, and Uncle Larry. Lots of talent and another even larger production scheduled for tonight. Wow!
And more ramblin’ to do today before the fun stuff tonight.
Sunshine and smiles all around. WYWH, y’all!
It looks like a great time was had by all!
