San Diego (or maybe even the world...)

The reference in the title is to the movie Anchorman for anyone who has seen it. So after changing jobs, going rafting and settling in our home, we then up and leave to San Diego for my brother-in-law's wedding. Here are pictures from the day before and the day of the wedding.. Matt and Alison did get married on the beach and it was a very nice day. I must say I wished they lived closer so we could spend more time together.



Continuing the catching up...

So our neighbor, Bob, makes these enormous statues of elk and moose (mostly.) Here is a picture from right outside of our house of a moose that now stands at the new Sportsman Ski Haus in Kalispell, MT.
On the way back from one of our trips from Spokane this summer, we stopped along the highway to take a dip in the river, with "River" still a part of my wife :)
So after I started my new job in Kalispell, MT my wife and I took a float down the river with a group of people, most of whom we work with. Before we went rafting, I woke up early, I mean REAL earlier to go to Glacier National Park for a ride. Here a few pictures from way too early in the morning. The road I am riding is Going-to-the-Sun and on my way up Logan Pass. The goats I took pictures of on the way down.


The picture above is while riding up Logan Pass with a view of one of the many beautiful mountains in the background, and yes snow is still there on the peaks. The view below is from my handlebars climbing up the same road which is 12 miles of climbing from the west side. The opening on the left of the tallest tree is the top of the pass. I am fortunate to live only 30 minutes away from this national park.
