The Summer of Glacier and Quotes is something i dreamt up during the early days (March 2020) of COVID-19, when we didn’t have a clue if travel would resume by Summer 2020.

Glacier National Park is a good friend

Closeup of snow plowing on Going to the Sun Road. Easy to see one of the two snow plows. The second one more challenging…it’s left-middle-top.

Context in the vastness. two snow plows just past The Loop switchback. McDonald Creek is running full in bottom left corner.

 

The thought of finishing my impossible book writing goal in Glacier National Park is surreal.

Seven.

Disney.

Business.

Books.

Glacier.

National.

Park.

One million acres.

734 miles of trail.

300 grizzlies.

Trying not to let the anticipation consume me.

The best Summer ever?

Downtown Orlando
Sitting on a bench yesterday afternoon outside the Orange County Government building. A beautiful Spring day.

 

The best Summer ever?

Sounds pretty darn lofty. Maybe too lofty.

Maybe next Summer, right?

But why not this Summer?

Some of us haven’t thought about this all year.

It’s March 4 as i wrote this (100 days before it goes live on June 12).

i’m already thinking about it.

In fact, started thinking about it last year.

Why?

Because, what i’ve learned from a lifetime at Disney, we get better results when we over-focus on the same things others (especially our old self) under-focus on or ignore.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Summer 2013 – best Summer ever?

Disney's Dolphin Resort
This simply looks like a fun place to be!

 

Summer 2013 – best Summer ever?

We rarely think about grading our seasons, in this case Summer.

Why?

A question that intrigues only a few.

Leaving in an hour to visit my favorite place on planet Earth.

Hoping the next week’s posts reveal insights for all of us – insights on living like we mean it – living intentionally.
