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 ...

... how huge the eruption was! The place reminded me of the landscapes generated by the eruptions of Mont St Helens in 1980 in the U.S. and Mount Pinatubo in 1991 in the Philippines.

Such a place built by a recent volcanic eruption reminds us that our planet is not dead. More large-scale eruptions are likely to occur in Katmai or elsewhere in the world. There were no casualties during the 1912 ...

... spent a couple of days fishing before Lois called to say her mom had passed away. Bill & Wendell scurried around, pulled the boat out of the river, and cached everything in its proper place so that Bill could fly to Dallas to be with Lois. Although the visit was brief, the boys still enjoyed their time together and Wendell’s back was ready for the rest. Seems the twisting motion of continuously casting doesn’t bode well for his ...

... in their thoughts. God bless them all. The Colonel's wife died a few months ago and I felt really sad when I watched him walk alone to his car in the parking lot after his shift. He told me he would hold a mask for me when the shipment came in the next day and I could come later that evening and pick it up. When I came in later, sure enough my mask was waiting for me hidden in a bucket in the paint department ...

... stay to the place you are staying temporarily? Fortunately some things were easy. I happened to find in the front of the storage unit some clothes for both of us to supplement with. Or, in my case, replace with as I already didn't fit into one pair of pants! The computer was up front as was the most recent hard copy of my CV. But the electronic copy was not on my computer. It ...

... go there anyway because then her line will be short. We know the drill. There are signs with photos and descriptions and we can read. Even if we didn't, she is bellowing it repeatedly. "please have your tickets and identification out and ready to be checked. Please pull your computer out of your bag for xray, etc etc." On the third time around, the lady behind us says under her breath, "we heard the first 3 times, why does she keep saying it?" By now, I am in stitches with ...

... to drop by at the local Volvo dealer to see if I can get my remote entry clicker replaced. The nearest dealer back home is in Vancouver, a ten hour drive away. I also would like to check out the local airport because there is a distant connection with Prince George. Prince George has recently succeeded in getting the millions of dollars in funding from the federal government and provincial government to finance a runway extension at the airport. The aim of ...

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

... She's absolutely ickle and sleeps in the back of the bus every night. We call her Mama Toast cos she stays by the gas rings in the morning to keep warm and keeps everyone plied with toast. So, that's the 13. All crammed into a tiny air conditioned mini-bus and camping our way around Alasaka and Canada. Ok, what have we been up to. Having the most fantastic time by the way and I feel as if I have been doing this for months already. Settled in to it straight away. We have 6 weeks ...
