Wind may have been nasty, but the photo is sure top notch!

I can add the original to my fotothing collection if you want a bigger one-that one is sized down for these forums. :D

Christmas lights are big up here in the north, they brighten the cold and dark and bring us some cheer in this, our darkest hours right before the holidays. I went out and sampled some of the lights. It was actually fairly warm, about 1�º to maybe 3�ºC, which was a nice break from the...

Absolutely brilliant! 8)

A thankgiving day ride. That's in farenheight.... :D Wasilla Lake, nicely frozen, better than a foot of ice out there. The skaters are out. What's even more fun is to get out there with a cage and spin some "brodies", "doughnuts", whatever you guys call it when you get out on a low...

That's a very nice view. Must be tough having to sit out on the deck every morning and look at the ocean out there. That's living. 8)

Sure, "food". whatever you say... Obviously on a liquid diet. :D

Sounds as if you'll be in the postion to do that...or you could see the Yukon Quest, IIRC it runs from Dawson to Fairbanks.

I did just buy Gnoma'am this bright little shiny thing that caught her magpie like eye...

Fantastic material thus far, please carry on! must get passport, must get passport, must get passport...

Near my home in Wasilla, Alaska, about 60 Kms north of Anchorage. If you look at a map of Alaska, follow Cook Inlet (IIRC, NZ also has a Cook Inlet 8) ) and the north end is where most of these shots were taken. The frost is from the fog that rolls in off the water, slicks up the bridge across...

What is this little truck? It kind of looks like a late 60's Buick from the tailights.
