Here's a few I've taken recently. We've had some strange weather. The sky in the first led to a report of a possible tornado touching down in the mountains SW of us:
 
 
This is one of a reflecting pool that filled a pothole in a boulder along Avalanche Creek in Glacier National Park:
 
 
That creek flows into McDonald Creek, which in late June was still raging, despite not having the epic snows of last year (plenty of recent rain, though):
 
 
And, finally, a recent sunrise. The contrail clouds aren't natural but the way they caught the light was cool:

I really need a vacation.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

It does have some nice parts and you're most welcome anytime. For you guys in the NC/SC/GA area, I think there's nothing prettier I've seen than while rafting the Chattooga River in the spring.
