Oh Canada!

And of course, after our cruise, we had high tea at the Prince of Wales Hotel.....
We took the boat from Canada to Goat Haunt, USA and enroute, the guide pointed out this extremely rare A-shaped fold in the rock face where the rock actually bent. Geologists come from all over the world to see this. Also, this is the only place where you can cross the Canada/USA border as though it did not exist....if you are a Canadian or US citizen, that is.

Waterton-Glacier Peace Park is an interesting 'first.' The two countries share amazing natural territory and so decided, with the push of their mutual Rotarians, to share this area in the name of peace, with two pavilions dedicated to this idea, one in each country.

wow, girl! What an adventure you are having! I enjoyed reading your blog and seeing what you've been up to. I know you guys are spiffing up their programs there and the scenery looks like it would be so inspiring! Oh my gosh. You always did know how to find the great gigs!
No more granny comments. I am a COOL and YOUNG grandma, thank you very much!
Love you both,
