Can you imagine the personal organizational power you can harness if you chose to make hard decisions, to not procrastinate, and to make a habit of confronting difficult decisions?

Called Xanterra to clean up the overlapping room reservations for this coming Labor Day weekend (in less than four weeks).

By the way, we had ATT Signal for first time in a week. Also had in-room wifi.

Felt good to be on the grid.

Also felt good to shed (future) rooms i don’t need.

It goes back to the degree of difficulty gaining in-Park reservations. Multiple, and often overlapping, reservations are required as you try to build something for your entire stay.

Afterward, i called the Sperry Chalet office to cancel the September 1st reservation.

And there was super good news, Mary the phone agent, said the elevation gain is 3,300 not 5,900 and the hike is only 6.5 miles, not nine.

Not only kept the reservation as is, but called Howard to share the story.

Also called and got an afternoon appointment with Podiatrist to remove the tiny heel cyst. No issue now but in a month it could ruin everything.

i’m not old-fashioned to say, “We should be off the grid while in Glacier.”

That’d be like saying (after Henry Ford perfected the assembly-line), “Kids these days should learn how to ride horses like we did when I was a boy.”

And as a highlight of the whole trip, serious writing was inspired by Glacier’s karma and spirit.

Could you feel the karma?

Today we check out of Rising Sun Motor Inn a day early.

Heading to Apgar Village Inn to shave two hours off our airport commute (from Rising Sun) tomorrow morning.

As i was thinking ahead to next Summer, i went online (as slow as it is) to look at availability for the same week next year.

Nothing.

Numerous tries at creative dates, party sizes, and such, i was able to book the same week here again.

Not only that, but i booked two rooms for the same week in hopes another family or person can join us.

Do you see how i over-focused on the details others might under-focus on or ignore (namely, waiting until later to check)?

Jammer Joe’s to the rescue.

Yesterday we had no specific plans after the rafting trip.

We figured we’d walk the shops in West Glacier, but we didn’t have a time line.

We walked, unrushed.

With multiple options for dinner, stopping at Lake McDonald Lodge would provide an opportunity to dine in Jammer Joe’s restaurant.

A first for you and Mom.

The drive to Logan Pass took 42  minutes.

Same drive mid-day can easily take an hour.

Eastbound traffic was almost nonexistent until the Loop.

Descending from Logan Pass the weather was foggy and cold (50 degrees at 7pm) until we passed the tunnel.

Lights out at 10:30 PM.

What will you do when i stop asking daily questions?

Our organized, proposed itinerary went out the window the evening of our second day because Highline Trail kicked out butts.

Today is day five.

Day four (yesterday) was completely unplanned and enjoyed spontaneously.

Day three was an easy fix. We simply moved Day seven’s itinerary up.

Today, day five, should unfold as planned.

Early (and pick of the litter parking spaces) up to Logan Pass for a hike on Hidden Lake Trail, then leisurely head West to Apgar and then Glacier Raft Company in West Glacier. Dinner and evening open.
