Hey all we're healthy and happy after a 3 day stay in Fairbanks with my Uncle Tom and Aunt Judy. We're headed for Denali Park this evening. Cloudy/foggy as I write this so let's hope the sky clears up so we can get some good views of McKinley the next couple days.
Hope all is well with you.
Ryan

Is that picture for real?? Is your real name Patty Adams??
Once again, as I write from my couch, surrounded by Urban Planning notes, I am very very jealous. Although not so much about hiking and sleeping in bear country, that is definitely not on my list of things to do in life.
where are you guys now? are you driving all the way back from Alaska to NM? thanks for sharing pretty pictures.
I like number 3 the best. And I'm glad to hear it.
maureen, it's more like Ryan Adams...uh, not the singer, the photographer...or something. ryan not only authored this post (yes, i know his posts are funnier and more entertaining) he also took that picture.
