glacier!


We're back from an ama-azing trip to Alaska! We saw sooo many animals, among which were grizzly bears and their cubs, baby moose, great horned owl babies (they're HUGE) . . . so many new little ones were out with their moms. None of these were in zoos or fences, all roaming freely in Denali National Park and environs.

Early June is definitely the time to see Alaska--before the tourist crowds and before the newborns know to hide from the tourists!

We took hundreds of pictures and I drew a little bit. Mostly we were on the move: plane, bus, paddlewheel, train, ship, dogsled (the wheeled kind). It was all scenically wonderful and too panoramic to capture well.

This picture was taken in College Fjord from the cruise ship. Moving the digitals around will take some time before there's more. Hold this space . . .
