Ah, this brought back a lot of memories. I spent my
formative years driving tour buses in Glacier National
Park and spent a lot of time in the pub in Waterton,
ordering two beers at a time, as I remember, so that you
always had one for the Queen, if she should show up!

I never saw Big Horn sheep there, but I did see a bear
or two running down the middle of the street as I
staggered back to the Prince of Wales hotel to sleep
it off. ;-)

Cheers,

David
