Travel: Glacier & Banff National Parks
About a year ago, Andy and I started dreaming about going to Glacier National Park in Montana. I love research, so I started looking into our options for campsites, the gear we'd need, the best hikes, and the food we'd take with us. We scoured our calendar for the best dates, working around when I had weddings. Eventually, we were on a plane headed west for the adventure of a lifetime.
As anyone who works from home knows, it's difficult to get away from work. I'm doing my best to set guidelines for myself and make sure I take time off, and getting away from home for at least a few days at a time every now and then is important to us. Because of all this, I was beyond excited to go exploring and leave all my editing gear at home.
