Coast to Coast and Back with the Conants!

In June of 2007, we take another journey west to Glacier National Park and Oregon. Follow our journeys by visiting this gallery. We take the bus from Portland, Maine to Boston, then the train to Albany, NY; Albany to Chicago; Chicago to Whitefish, Montana; Whitefish to Portland, Oregon. It's hard to select one photo over another. This place is so pretty and the photos almost 'take' themselves. We take no credit for the beauty! Then we spend a few days with Ron and Jordan in Portland! What a great place!
