Mike and I spent 3 1/2 years in Alaska. Some of the sites they will see on the AC'12 we got to visit back then. I was very frugal with my old SLR. What a difference it would have made to have had digital cameras back then!
Top, left: One of our first outings with the new baby and puppy was to Hatcher Pass. Smokey (the husky-wolf hybrid) met a creek for the first time, fell in, and found out she hated cold, snow-runoff water. After that, she would only wade up to her chest or put her face down in the water. No swimming for her.
Top, right: This view is of one of the tidal flats of Turn-again arm. It looks very peaceful; however, Turn-again Arm is home of some of the largest bore-tides in the world.
Bottom, left: A rare view of the top of Mt. McKinley. The mountain lives in a shroud of clouds. We found out that the day we saw this, it was the first or second time they had been able to see the top from the view point that summer.
Bottom, right: Ellen, Steve, and Mike at the train station at Denali National Park. We took the train up, along with my grandmother Thelma, and my cousin Laura. It was a great way to relax, and enjoy the scenery.
