    We spent a day there two years ago. My wife and kids really enjoyed it.

    Any guesses how you contracted?

    I know in Europe they make you mask up on the planes, which I'm actually thankful for.

    Yeah, would be nice to hit Logan pass, but at the very least, the East side of the park appears to have some options (the lodge in East Glacier is impressive), and the West part is open up to Avalanche Creek--and there are some great hikes that trailhead from there. I'm sure that you will find plenty there that you will enjoy. We'll be in Glacier from Sunday through Tuesday; I'll keep my eye out for other Oregon plates.

    No idea, my buddy who I visited doesn't have it yet. I either got it in my travel on the way home or on our last day or two hanging out in Mainz. They are basically done with masks and barely inforced it.i think Covid is just surging and kind of everywhere right now. So far my booster felt worse than the Covid, but it's still early.

    Not really a vacation, just a Father's Day weekend trip over the pass to central Oregon. Going to get some golf in with my pops and show my girlfriend our property over there for the first time. Excited to get away and enjoy some high desert air!

    Anybody want me to reach out to Mr. Maris? Nah, I'll just keep an eye out for "Trump 2024" flags.

    We will be there on Sunday and Monday. Going to go up the east side around many glaciers I think.

    Sweet--If you hear someone shout "RIP!", I expect you to call "CITY!" back at me.

    Free admission to Silverwood for Fathers this weekend. Nice day to randomly be in the area.

    July trip, thinking road trip.

    Thursday night: LA to San Luis Obipso. Stay at the Madonna Inn.

    Friday: drive PCH from SLO to Monterrey. Maybe drive to hotel in San Jose or stay in Monterrey over night.(shitty motels out there are like $300)

    Saturday: Santa Cruz. Hang out in San Jose if friends are around.

    Sunday: drive back to LA on the 5. Stop in Coalinga to go to Harris Ranch for some steak.

    Other options:

    1. Drive to Vegas. Stay at Encore. May get bored of it. Going LDW anyways. Pool and steaks is always a good idea.

    2. Fly to Phoenix, stay in Scottsdale and explore.

    I'm iffy about flying due to price and the number of cancellations lately. Vancouver was my goal, but it just got too expensive.

    We are getting ready to hit the road again. We will be doing 9 days in Solana Beach. My nephew's have a big soccer tournament in the area so we will be down to watch them. My wifes family is in Temecula so it's sort of a double family visit trip. Should be nice I guess but after the last month of dog issues, Covid and traveling, I would rather stay home for a bit. This Covid has been no joke, kicked both of our asses big time even with boosters. Don't fuck with the Covid guys, I was getting a little to casual with things and regret it.

    Solana Beach/Del Mar is a great area. Temecula ain't bad either.

    Moved on from Glacier today headed to Rushmore tomorrow. 6:30 after all shops are closed bam flat tire. Ended up buying one of those plugs to fix a hole in the tire by yourself. I hope it holds.
