This is a good idea of US 89 from Great Falls to Glacier Park.
Lots of scenic views with the Rocky Mountains as a backdrop.
The Whistle StopNice little local cafe in East Glacier, awesome smoked salmon omelet.
Inside the Grand Lodge at Glacier Park,Lodge was originally built by the Northern Pacific Railroad to accommodate park guests.
Yes, those are pine logs serving as the main hall columns.
This is my idea of a table!
Beginning the journey through the park.
Beautiful lakes and mountains formed by glacier activity.
A biker's view of "Going to the Sun Road".
Note the "guard rail" in the foreground.
On the sides of the distant mountains can be seen the Going to the Sun Road.
The view speaks for itself.
An abundance of snow caps.
Near Logan Pass and the Continential Divide.
Typical color of the lakes.The day was capped off with a stop in a cafe in West Glacier for a bite to eat, a huge piece of huckleberry pie and way too much huckleberry ice cream. Then to a little cabin that featured no phone, no tv, no air conditioning, just prop open the window and let the cool mountain air fill the room while we sleep. Perfect!

Kim and I are in Lexington, Va tonight. We visited the tomb of Stonewall Jackson here and several other civil war generals. As we walked to dinner we noticed it, which was a big plus for me. Dinner has been awesome the last several nights. Tonight was a salmon sandwich and a very unique Reuban - everything on both were completely homemade. It rains each evening as we dine, by the time we are done it is too and has given the harley a nice bath, I just wipe off with the cajun and cover. Talk to ya later.
ps.. Thanks for all the pics. We have seen some awesome sites, wow is the blueridge a great ride - we love it.
