Getting my exercise in the Flathead National Forest at Glacier Rim this week has been so spiritually uplifting. I just love being here, and my walks have been getting slightly longer each day since I've been here. This is bear country though, so I have to carry bear spray with me, which is a little unnerving, but so far, so good.
