... traveling. In stores, people look you in the eye like maybe they know you from somewhere. Drivers are rude, like anywhere, but not always. Anchorage citizens are friendlier, freer, feistier. You can't tell who has the money.No one cares who your daddy is. Well, maybe that's changing a bit. But since we became a state in 1959, where's the status? "Hey my family has been in Alaska since 1959?" Don't think so. Some people are starting to show their money. There is a big ...

June 13<br>The campground is in Palmer, which is north of Anchorage. It takes about half an hour to drive into Anchorage; it's expressway so the drive is pretty easy.<br><br>It's always fun to attend local events, and Palmer's fair was being held. One of the booths had very nice, reasonably priced birch baskets made by a local man. The lady helping him in the booth moved here from ...

... blog from Canada we detail our close encounter with a black bear. So, after heading further down the bay, we once again stop to see some sheep on the cliffs, and we're all pretty over it by then, I think. As the yacht heads towards to end of the bay, it starts to sway as the Pacific Ocean begins to get rockier.

... of us. Babe and Dude are going to be 11 this spring. Smyth lost count of the number of races they have finished and said they just needed to "keep their noses to the wheel and they did. Really good hearted dogs that work hard no matter how hard it gets. They've been around a long time!" The picture in the Anchorage Daily News showed #48 crossing the finish line with one his dogs, Flame, riding IN the sled. Babe, the lead dog, paced Smyth's team at a time when ...

On our last day, back in Anchorage, we took a tour around the city,<br>rented a car and drove along the seward scenic hwy, visiting the Alaska<br>Wildlife Conservation Center. This is a wildlife refuge for the animals<br>native to alaska that for one reason or another cannot be returned to<br>the wild, so they make this their home. I have to say this ...

... t quite sure how I was going to get there. I ended up under the impression that I would have to walk or hitch up the road to the trailhead, about 2 miles from where the bus drops you off. So, I'm debating how to get this done when a fellow hostel resident walks through the main room. We chat for a minute and she's off to Flat Top. She has rented a car, so she's able to get all the way to the trailhead and invites me along. I was pretty ...

... it was actually already very crowded. We started heading down the street but then me and Eric saw a guy with an AWESOME wold hat so we HAD to take a picture with him. The rest of the group kept going though se we got lost from them. We decided to just go on our own and if we met up with them, that would be great. We headed down the street and met up with the newlyweds peter and chalise. We were at an intersection and thought it would be great when the mushers ...

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 ...
