Motivational regret

  • A picture is worth a thousand words. Thank you Steve and Stacy.
  • Mostly indescribable. Letting the photo tell the story.
  • As the day changes the light, so it changes what we see.
  • Someday, perhaps, i will see this as the sun sets to the left.
  • Asked permission to lead us down. Best way to learn is to do.
  • Looking back at Mt Reynolds, from ground level. Change what you see and what you see changes.
  • Big Horn Sheep on the Reynolds saddle trail.
  • Lake McDonald. Steve and Stacy’s traditional location to pause, relax, soak feet in “ice-cold” water and reflect on whatever hike they did. Today it was Reynolds.
  • Big time hiking accomplishment. Reality of simple living – a simple dinner.

i’ve used fear of regret with ever increasing mastery and influence to eliminate vast forests of potential, probable regret.

The best way to brand

Overdue to stop and stare from this vantage point.
  • Find the hidden Mickey? Dead center.
  • Hidden Mickey. Lower right.
  • Hidden Mickey. Good luck.
  • Another hidden Mickey. More good luck wishes.
  • Hidden Mickey. This one is tough.
  • Hidden Mickey.Easy peasy, right?
  • Dry land hidden Mickey.
  • Tah dah!
  • Four sets of three circle stones.
  • McDonald Creek is a raging and dangerous, uncrossable creek until about August.
  • Self-reflection never gets old.
  • Cranking out the pics and vids…this number is from about 36 hours time-lapse.
  • Love how the Continental Divide (aka the Garden Wall) is on the left horizon.

The best way to brand yourself is to be true to yourself. Get to deeply and broadly know yourself. Then be yourself unappologetically.

Presidential Suite (no one knows nor cares)

Mountains through chalet window
In the 40 nights i’ve spent at Granite Park Chalet, never stayed in the Presidential Suite.

It’s simply called Room 8. i nick-named it the Presidential Suite.

The only room that has this view.

There’s a person by the blue shoe, for second floor context.

Overwhelmed by this opportunity.
Was preparing to do a Grinnell Glacier Overlook (center horizon) sunset hike when i realized the present moment could not be topped.

Pulled up a chair and simply drank it all in, without lifting a muscle.

The sun coming through the open room door prompted me to turn around and catch this image.

No one cares what rewards you enjoy or hardships you endure. But you do. In the end, that’s what matters. You have to know and you have to care.

Balance is not possible

Always fascinated to see if anyone else in the world publicly proclaims balance is possible.

Balance is not a myth.

Busy doing nothing

snow storm in the distant mountains on a sunny day
Safely down from the snow and driving to Columbia Falls grocery store. Pulled over to grab this shot of the Continental Divide – and what i walked away from.

Glacier National Park teaches me how much i do not need. Glacier also teaches life’s greatest priorities.
