I gathered a few special rocks and noticed that it was nearly 5:30 and I had to put the Stouffer's macaroni and cheese in the ...

I love the wild Alaskan Cotton. It reminds me of Whoville in the Dr. Suess book.













This young moose was feeding near the highway.

Wednesday: Wendy & Bill's flight got mixed up so they got into Anchorage at 3:00 on Wednesday. Fred & Evelyn went on to Richard and Vicki Matthew's home in Kasilof. Bill and I sat at a park at Lake Hood, by the airport, and watched float planes land and take off. The cabin they rented is in Soldatna, 124 miles away. It took 3 hrs to get there, the road is very windy but it is beautiful along the Turnagain Arm. We stayed in a vacated lot near the cabin they had ...

... it's all about. There were amazing chainsaw carvings. One of the men there told us all about his gold mining.

... day. I was not a happy camper at this point. We ate our small lunch outside with the sunny day. We put in a load of laundry and took a walk around town. Nothing much here except for a few 100 year old houses and a small Russian Church. The visitors center was a small letdown as you had to pay $3 each to see a film.

It has been a while since I have last updated my travels... I have despised the bad combination of expensive cafe-nets, slow connection.
