MONTANA, FLATHEAD LAKE

After we take a morning swim in the Clark Fork River we stop in Missoula for an oil change!  Now it is north again and we soon enter the Flathead Indian Reservation.  Everything looks nice and green.  Cherries and huckleberries are for sale everywhere.  We stop in Arlee at the Flathead Museum and Trading Post where they have some beautiful crafts for sale.  I see a t-shirt that says "DON'T FEED THE PILGRIMS."

We skirt around the huge Flathead Lake then up the Flathead River to Glacier National Park.  It's late so the Ranger Station is closed.  That's no matter since we get in free.  I'm a disabled veteran.  We find the visitors center and a nice cafe.  We take a tiny spot in the HUGE park service campground.
