Sunrise, Lake McDonald.  Fuji X-E1, 18-55 lens.  F 8 @ 1/20th, ISO 400

 

Well, finally, today is the day.  Our friends and team are arriving from all over America and meeting in Saint Mary tonight!  I love to tease Jim, that it takes him three hours to drive a ten minute route, with needing to stop every ten feet to make a photo!!!  I love his enthusiasm about territory undiscovered so I figured since the team arrives today at around 1:00 p.m. and it is a 2.5 hour drive to Saint Mary, I should give them about 7 hours to make it!!  The drive up Going To The Sun Highway is not your average drive!

 

Time Olive, Photography specialist for In Touch Ministries, and I drove to every single location yesterday to check out the conditions, and mark the GPS spots.  I can’t wait to share this great park with our guests!  Here are a few images I made while “working” yesterday.  God is Good!!!
