Return to Washington and on to Montana.

We arrived in Bellingham Friday a week ago in the early morning. We drove from Bellingham 100 miles down to Seattle to visit the Space Needle and David wanted to visit a brewery in the university area. David also wanted to see where Starbucks got it's start, but the streets were so narrow and the pedestrian and vehicle traffic so heavy that we decided to just drive past it and head back to my cousin Janet's house. She has a home on her daughter and son in law's 5 acres that they share with three horses, four dogs, and three cats, if I counted correctly. Oh, also two great children. We had planned to leave there sooner than we did, but I had work to do on the camper, and David wanted to go back to Seattle to visit Washington University with a friend he met on the ferry, so we stayed longer. We went back to a place Janet took us to on the way to Alaska that has fresh mussels from a farm in the bay and visited a fifties "joint" in the mountains which had a jukebox that still works, but the 45s are scratched up, and visited Deception Falls nearby. I took a few videos of the falls, but am having trouble getting them to upload. Then David received information that he needed to get back to Knoxville soon for an interview that would lock up graduate school, so I took him back to Seattle to catch a flight to St. Louis to visit my oldest daughter Jacki, and Melissa drove there today to take him back to Collierville to get his car by way of visiting my parents in Cape Girardeau. Once he gets his car, he will drive to Knoxville for his interview.
So I drove across Washington yesterday, and into Montana. Since David wasn't along I drove till dark which left me in the middle of nowhere in Montana. I spent the night in a rest area on I 90. When I stopped it was empty, when I woke up this morning, it was full of trucks and a few campers. By the time I left at nine, it was empty again. I slept with bear spray and a bit of hardware by my pillow, so I slept soundly.
Somewhere along the way I realized that this is the July 4th holiday weekend, and I could not reach David by phone, so I left a voice mail that I needed campground help. He sent me the number for Glacier National Park and I found that their campgrounds were full, but they had no camper hook ups anyway. Then I used my GPS to locate RV parks and they were all full within 60 miles of the park. So here I sit by myself with nothing to do except to work on uploading photos on a very slow Internet connection and updating this finally. Tomorrow I will drive into Glacier National Park and look around and try to decide whether to drive into Canada to see more glaciers or if it is worth the drive. A camper in DC told us that Canada has some of the most spectacular glaciers north of Glacier, so will likely go there.
