Some schools started this week but summer and tourist season is still in full swing. I have had 2 real estate sales close in the last week. One of my listings I sold myself to a woman from Texas closed last week and she is moving in today after a long drive. The closing this week was for the veterinarian at Alpine Vet. Hospital in Whitefish. Awesome young family and great addition to our valley. More and more out of state buyers are trickling into the valley. I have 2 more for sure coming in the next month. Traditionally, fall is when we see those out of state buyers looking and purchasing.
Yesterday we drove up to Glacier National Park and hiked some of the Highline Trail that starts at Logan Pass. A busy trail it is. It is very narrow with a hose to hang onto if you have little tolerance for heights. Not a difficult trail - at least the part we did. We followed the Going to the Sun road the whole time so clocked it in the car on the way down the pass afterwards. Did about 5.5 miles round trip. Timing was great, just started to rain when we got back to the visitor center and were sitting outside eating our lunch.
Stopped at Perfect Cuts butcher shop in Columbia Falls for steaks for dinner. Their selection is immense from buffalo in many forms to pork to beef.
Kalispell Farmer's market today was the 9am destination to get the best fresh stuff there is to be had this time of year. I was happy that I didn't totally miss out on cherries. There is a late Flathead Lake cherry that was just picked this week so got some of those.
Next, to the historical bike trail. We rode the section from town, along Ashley Creek, to south of town. About 10 miles. I have suggested to my husband that we have done enough work with our legs for 2 days!
My garden: raspberries are finished, lots of lettuce, tomatoes are turning red, pumpkins are turning orange, green beans are ready, carrots still coming. Every night a home grown salad for dinner!
