I see the sun starting to make its daily journey from east to west. today is my second day of work, i'm looking forward to it. At least I have money coming that I didn't have before, it don't pay much but I needed to get back to doing physical labor, I been writing quite a bit so it was a relief to finally burn off calories all day long. I have been going to the fitness center two times a week and participating in their circuit training offered by the fitness center, I love it and want to continue it more in the weeks and months to come.
It looks like it is going to be a sunny day, that's quite fine with me. I think I took this picture back in March when it was still winter in Polson, Montana. There are a number of islands out on the lake, the lake is a huge body of water, it measures eighteen miles by twenty five, it stretches from the town of Polson all the way to Kalispell. The drainage included the surrounding mountains, Glacier National Park, the Bob Marshall wilderness, the Mission Mountains and Hungry Horse reservoir. I loved taking pictures of the Mission Mountains, they remind me of the Rocky Mountains to the north of us and the mountains north and west of Chama, New Mexico. I would like someday to take a pack trip back into the Rio Grande Wilderness where the highest peaks are.
When I was returning home after work it was sprinkling a little, we didn't get any major rain but I imagine we will in the coming days and week. It's been a wet summer after the fires were extinguished in the forests around us. The West Fork fire burned more than one hundred thousand acres over past Wolf Creek, I heard it had a lot of Bark Beetle infestation. The forest west of Trujillo Meadows are pretty heavily infested and I would not be surprised if it burned in the future, it is a sad sight to see. Whole mountainsides of brown trees.
