Swimming with Sharks.....

 
         Today was a multi-activity day.  I said goodbye to Jude and Gemma until the next time I see them.                                                

 
        Gerry and I made one more beach time adventure in the afternoon.  The tide was out, the air warm, the water temperature perfect and the waves just right.  Grandma G had to savor the moment and  submerge herself in the salt water  then walk along the beach.  On the way back while sauntering  through the clear water I caught a glimpse of a 18 inch streak wiggling its way back out to sea.....then another 12 inch streak also swaying through the water.  SHARKS!  Well, baby sharks, but still they were sharks.  Oh, My!  A little further along a small sting ray went gliding about in the surf.  Guess its time to head home when the sea life is coming so close to shore.  Oh, My!
 
      This evening Bill joined Gerry and me for dinner at the Indian Princess. It was my first taste of Indian cuisine.  Bill's level of spice was medium, Gerry's was "spicy" and mine was....mild.  All the food was wonderfully tasty.

GREAT CROSS COUNTRY ROAD TRIP
AUGUST 19, 2012
     On our second day in Glacier National Park Betsy, Kate and I took the full day "Red Bus" tour on the Going to the Sky highway.  Niece, Vickie, had already experienced that so she went off on her own to do some hiking.

     "For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him.  The sea is his for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land."  (Psalm 95: 3-5)
