GNRT DAY 14 HERE COMES THE SUN AGAIN

Glacier has been so amazing (hopefully you surmized that from these rhymes) but we thought this trip would not be complete without Going to the Sun Road one more time. After all the breathtaking views the first day… we waited a whole day…then we were ready for the next trip…once we could breathe again The first trip was at six in morning…we were anxious to get there soon… so the second time we decided to go in the afternoon. We figured Na’pi the old man who is the sun… would shine his afternoon light across his mountains, his glaciers and his streams and illuminate different sights. And the old man didn’t disappoint…around every turn a new surprise It made me wish the words I write could keep pace with my eyes. He lit up parts of his landscape we hadn’t seen before It was as if everywhere we looked…he opened a new door. And once again as we tried to talk…we cold not make a sound Suffice it to say it was even more amazing… the second time around. On the first trip we stopped a million times to take in every view The second time I’m pretty sure we stopped a million…and two. Once again I’ll repeat myself….the vistas were breathtaking and the Aspen trees agree with me because they could not stop quaking. I don’t know if we’ll ever be back here…before our final days are done But I know if we do come back…for the third time…well be going to the sun
