I was absently-mindedly gassing up my old Ford 150 the other day when I looked up and froze. In front of me, I mean right there, was a drop dead stunning full-fall gorgeous mountain. Not off- in-the-distance Mt. Rainier, but right there. Green swarth rising to cirlets of golden poplar branches,ruddy blueberry bushes,smoky purple rock, topped by fresh white snow, and finally fresh blue sky.Sky and air so clear. A view from a Tesoro gas station.Only in Alaska. Anywhere else ...

... many farewells. We were the only ones on the tour who weren&#8217;t Americans. We may have talked some of them into visiting Australia. Time will tell!<br><br>We have enjoyed our week in Anchorage with no set schedule, although we have had long days trying to see everything and it stays light until late so we just keep going till it gets dark. We have met lots if nice people here including a few Aussies (2 from Sydney, 2 from Brisbane and 2 from Tura Beach). One day we ...

... beavers working away (Go Beavers! In case you didn't know, that was my high school mascot). We got back to the city around 9, made our stop at FedEx to ship back the lens that LJ rented for the trip and grab dinner before heading to the airport for the shuffle of bags and trying to keep the fees to a minimum depending on our baggage weight - it should be fun! We'll go through Phoenix and then back to Charlotte around 5 PM tomorrow (Tuesday). <br ...

It is Thursday, and we just completed our last travel day in Alaska. We drove from Denali National Park, stopped in Palmer, AK prior to heading back to our accommodations in Anchorage. We had breakfast in Denali at the Old Salmon Bake Restaurant. Some of us had the sourdough pancakes and others had omelettes. Our waitress was originally from Wisconsin, but is a waitress in Alaska during the summers and Hawaii in the winters. Most of Alaskan ...

... in Alaska and Yukon, packing has to stay light. Some of the required survival gear already loaded onto the plane: tent, sleeping bags, food & water for 10 days, weapons, tarps, emergency kit, charts, survival manuals. Some of the desired gear: mosquito repellent, sufficient underwear to last to laundry day. The gear, Dave and I tipped the ...

... shore based on the estimated number of reserves, especially in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). From Shell's perspective, major competition in the Arctic has already started. Both Norway and Russia began using their own semi-privatized oil companies to drill off-shore. In 2007 Norway opened a new gas field in the Barents Sea named Snohvit with Statoil as its main partner[2], and in late 2006 Russia announced that it would use Gazprom to ...

... the<br>highlight of our trip, there many animals here to see in their natural<br>habitat (not like a zoo) and all the proceeds from the admission ticket<br>and gift shop purchases go to taking care of them. I even got to feed a<br>deer. My alaska trip was amazing and I look forward to the day that I<br>can revisit this beautiful state of wilderness.

Niether of us were morning people at the time and the sound of the alarm only reminded us of work until a few split-seconds later when I realized we would be on a plane headed for one of my ultimate destinations in just a few hours - Alaska. Our eight-day trip from Phoenix, AZ to the last great frontier was finally here and that was enough to get me to jump out of ...

Now I tell the story of how I got a step-mom... I was 4 and Nicolas was 5. My Dad still had no wife. But since it was Christmas, my Dad felt like he found God's angel wanting to help, and now that angel is my mom. Her name is now Mrs. Barren-Peterson. She is only a year younger than my dad, but she was still good then ...
