So my train leaves at 6:45pm, check out of the lodge is 11:00am… so I have about 8 hours to do something…
So what I  ended up doing was having breakfast. I had the huckleberry pancakes that were as big as the plate so I was only able to eat about half of it. Nexted I packed my bags and now I’m just sitting out on the back porch the lodge waiting till about 1030 until I officially check out of my room and then I’ll have a couple hours to kill before the train.

I think I found a huckleberry bush at the lodge,

As I’m finishing up lunch, I can testify that Montana can make great elk sausages. After today’s lunch I’ve tried 3 types and I’ve been happy with all of them.

So the train ride from Glacier to Seattle was uneventful. I stayed in my coach seat and tried to sleep.  The only cool thing was being in the end car when the train split and the front half went to Seattle and the back half went to Portland.
