From the Front Porch reader, Sandy, and her husband Jerry have been traveling the west these last weeks. On two previous trips, visits to Glacier National Park were a bit of a bust as the park was cloudy, fogged and/or snowed in so that they never saw the mountains…and as I just found out never saw a mountain goat either! Sandy emailed me from the Grand Tetons asking about Glacier Park weather – should they or shouldn’t they make the trip north? It is risky business trying to predict mountain weather but it has been beautiful and the forecast said it was to continue so I posted yesterday’s Glacier photos as added incentive and told them to “Come on up”!

They did! – Sandy emailed me this morning that they were on their way and that she was so excited to think that they would finally see the mountains in Glacier National Park. It was still dark when she emailed but the sky was clear and filled with stars so I had high hopes for gorgeous weather.

ahhhhhh!!! – That is a sigh of relief as the morning dawned clear and beautiful with the mountains visible north to the park. Sandy and Jerry stopped on their way to the park and in time for a piece of cherry pie…
