CLOUDS IN THE PARK

 We read about a lecture being given in the park, and it sounded interesting, plus we are up for anything new and different.  This was a brown bag lecture by Steven Running, an author and professor at University of Montana in Missoula, who is an expert on climate change, and shared the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.  His talk was interesting and down to earth, and made us want to do things to fix the earth, which is in trouble.  First on the list....shut down the coal fueled power plants, and find alternative energy sources!  No small task.
 After the lecture, we drove up to the Loop, and had lunch.  We always love seeing the park with its different weather.  Never a dull moment, and it's beautiful no matter what the weather.
 You can see Going to the Sun Road, which just opened about a week ago.
Bird Woman Falls sits in the mists.
