GNP Day 7, Spring 2024

Mountain lake
We’re back for another day.

Yesterday was perfect here. So we are gonna go for two in a row.

You are as old as your thoughts and as old as you feel, combined.

dad

Our thoughts can become hardened and stiff.

Our bodies can become softened and achy.

Intentionally over-focus (yesterday’s theme) on things you under-focus on or ignore.

You know, your thoughts, attitude, and mindset.

As well as your movement, nutrition, and rest.

Note: And there’s the work and home (and spirit) choices too.

GNP Day 6, Spring 2024

No flowers yet.
White board messages
May 10, 2024. Opening Day. We are here.
Couple at mountain lake
Somewhere near 10am.

Luck favors the intentional.

dad

Days ago the Camp Store manager mentioned the Lodge was opening Friday.

The camp store two days ago was the only open operation. We visited before our hike to McDonald Falls.

Chris, the manager, and i met a few years ago at Rising Sun.

i remembered him and he remembered me.

We had a nice conversation.

Told him we know Alan and Ben at front desk. That’s when he shared today’s opening date.

Note: Being dialed into the various Lodge opening dates is not on my radar. Now it is.

A Hungry Horse tradition and transformational expansion.
Mountains

What are my priorities? What is their prioritized order?

dad

The quality of your life is driven by the quality of your questions.

“Why are questions important” is an important question.

Why?

It’s easier to make decisions when you have prioritized priorities.

You cannot prioritize your priorities if:

  1. You don’t know your highest priorities.
  2. You have not prioritized your highest priorities.

Note: No one needs priorities. Unless, however, a person is striving for vibrancy. Then prioritized priorities is the only way.

After the hotel breakfast buffet, we had a U-Haul storage opportunity.
Couple at rural bakery
Between East Glacier Park (the town, not the region) and St Mary. It’s Polebridge’s ‘sister’ location. Pronounced “Key-eye-oh”.

World-famous pastries. A remote location in Glacier’s Northwest corner.

Lean into discomfort.

dad

We are intentionally unintentional with this week’s schedule.

Why?

We have no Spring season experience to draw from.

We know there is snow, and mud, and cold on the trails.

Most trails aren’t open and won’t be for two more months.

Going-to-the-Sun Road isn’t open yet.

We are comfortable leaning into each day without a solid plan.

This is new for us.

Uncomfortable.

And fun.
