Alrighty, here are some Alaska pics… enjoy!
My mom and I at Denali National Park
A mountain ram right outside our tour bus… on the trip we saw a grizzly with her cubs, a couple moose (made me think of Jennifer Kim), plenty of mountain sheep/rams, whales, seals, and a number of bald eagles…
Bro-in-law Todd and sister Katie
My little sister Laura with her THIRTY-TWO POUND salmon!!! She had trouble reeling it in and I kept encouraging her, “C’mon Laura, reel it in. You can do it. Reel it in.” I had no idea just how big the fish was. It put up quite a fight, to say the least.
Family with the three fish we decided to keep… in just a few hours we caught 12 salmon and 1 rainbow trout… our fishing guide said it was one of the best days of fishing he had been a part of in five years
Pic from the cruise ship
Kayaking pic… two per kayak, we lined up next to each other for the picture
Todd and Katie in their kayak
Picture of dogtown from the helicopter… 270 sled dogs live here and their trainers live in the tents outside the dog area. It is only accessible by helicopter, they even fly the dogs in.
Laura and I outside the helicopter at dogtown. The whole area is a huge glacier that is covered in snow with mountains surrounding it.
Those two specks standing together are Laura and I, we rode the sled behind the trainer’s… the dogs were awesome! I was surprised at just how excited the dogs are to run together and pull the sleds.
Mom and Paps with some of the dogs
A dog pulling a Snoopy on his doghouse…
Another scenery pic
Zip wire course, some of the zip lines were really long
Family pic
I came back to my apartment to find the kids had left a note on my refrigerator.
