Glacier – Page 75 – Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker

Marketing speak (reprise)

No glasses and not much gray. A 20-year Disney Service pin and a Partner’s In Excellence pin on name tag.

Also a decade less experience too.

A decade, when you are intentional, changes everything.

Most of us have no patience to invest a decade for something extraordinary.

The week-long business trip is a side-effect of having a great captain at the helm of a small but ambitious ship.

Our High School’s parent company, Nord Anglia, has a simple battle cry:

Be ambitious.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Consistency is the hallmark of world-class effort

Glacier National Park Lodge availability — Notice the 2017? Already planning next year’s visit.

Live and learn comes from the common effect of procrastinating.

The longer you wait, generally, the fewer available options.

This often leads to stress because “what could have been” ain’t gonna happen.

Don’t live like that.

Would you mind if we substituted 30 for one?

St Mary Lake — Driving by and not stopping it literally impossible.

Two Dog Flats Elk — Two Dog Flats pullout. Parked and waiting to see some wildlife at dusk.

A simple dinner from food in our rental car trunk at 6,650 feet and we were happy. Afterwards, we descended back to the East side to look for bears. Almost immediately we saw a solitary elk at Two Dog Flats. But we waited and kept watching the lone elk. Minutes later, a dozen more appeared from the forest’s right edge. Watching through the small binoculars came motion from the left. Two dozen more elk. A nice way to end the day.

Luck favors the prepared

Waterton Park — It looked different as we left to drive back to Glacier.

Chief Mountain’s character changes with the sky.

Glacier Bear spotting — This is what it looks like just before the bear’s head becomes visible.

Two Dog Flats view — Across St Mary Lake at Two Dog Flats.

The return to dinner at Rising Sun was followed by an early evening drive to Two Dog Flats to look for a bear.

We got lucky almost immediately.

Like we were back in college

Dinner at Logan Pass last night included leftovers from lunch (at Swiftcurrent) and other items we purchased the day we arrived but hadn’t yet touched. It was nice to have the spontaneity to improvise. This wouldn’t have happened had we not been decently organized.
