Photo: 2020, wearing the Covid-19 mask simply to identify the year. Masks were required on trails. My favorite Glacier National Park mountain to summit, Mt Oberlin. Over my head is Reynolds Mountain. To the right is Clements Mountain.

Not sure i will get to summit Oberlin this year.

It is what it is.

Mid Life Celebration the book by Jeff Noel
Published Thanksgiving Day, 2013. Retired from Disney almost a year later on Halloween, 2014. It was pretty scary to leave after 30 years.

Glacier, thank you for the memories.
