Place: Small town America stopovers..........

American small towns fascinate me, with their unique characteristics, local stores, small houses, natural beauty...while visiting national parks, I get to spend nights there, and savor their quaint beauty....some of my stopovers..

Columbia Falls, Montana
On our road trip to Glacier National Park, we spent a night here..
I woke up in the morning to see this view through the window...

Came out to the balcony to be greeted by this blue mountains and greenery..

Decided to go for a stroll by the lodge....

Spotted this log cabin....

Cutbank, Montana
We spent a couple of nights in this lodge during our visit to Glacier National Park...Its located not  far from Canada border....

The lobby was emanating a snug feel with that big bison head, fireplace, bundle of logs and that straw angel..

Its the backside of the lodge..with his morning tea, my souse is looking at the countless Columbian squirrels inhabiting the property...

Cooke city, Montana
Situated at the North-East entrance of Yellowstone National Park was one of that kind...known as a tourist city, populated with motels and lodges, it seems untouched by urbanization with its natural beauty intact...
Large swathes of alpine forest...



Vintage stores...


Abandoned buildings....


Rain-washed forest refreshes the eyes...

Mammoth city, California
Nestled in the Sierras,  it is a pretty town offering immense tourist opportunities........
