Between storms -- some photos for you. :)
Our weather has been a roller coaster ride for about a month now -- lots of snow, record cold, ice, record warm, epic melt, hurricane-force winds, rain -- but today was perfect. Clear, in the 40s, and calm. Of course, I suddenly have work after about a month's break -- of course -- but since it's supposed to snow tomorrow, I made time for the sunset.

"The Airport is Secure"


Mt. Susitna in Clouds


The Tony Knowles Coastal Trail.


The parking lot at Point Worozof was full. Everybody had the same idea -- get outside while you can. :)


My hometown.



It was so nice not to have freezing fingers, but walking on the watery ice was a hazardous venture. I guess you can't have everything. :)

2. I just made Mt. Susitna in Clouds my new background. Thanks.
I think they are all beautiful but, I really love that one.

3. So gorgeous...
thank you for sharing those.

I find the one of the trail nearly breathtaking. I would frame that and put it on my wall.

4. Sweet
I've already been there twice, and I can't wait to get back.

You'll appreciate this: Somehow our puppy Matty's nickname is Matanuska. :wtf:

5. Is your puppy's second name "Thunderf***"?
(Legendary strain of Alaska marijuana, for the uninformed...) :rofl:
