Summer Vacation 2012

Well, this year's big summer holiday has come and gone and way too quickly I might add.  This year we started our holiday with a couple of nights in Radium Hot Springs at the Canyon Campground. From there we travelled down into the States in the Coeur D'Alene area at a state park called Farragut Campground, and from there we went east into Montana in the Flathead Lake region to finish things up. We left June 30th and returned home on July 12th.  Despite a couple of wet days at the beginning, the weather was perfect for the duration.

Take a look below for a sampling of some of the pictures we took. Click the pics to see full size images.
