This photo is from last September when Alaska was full of reds, browns, and golds. Winter has a beauty of its own but I look forward to the rich colors that fill the Chugach State Park from summer into fall.

Spring in Anchorage means ferns  popping up suddenly from the thawed ground, a surprising revival of insects, and a bright sun that casts fantastic shadows.

Moose


Yesterday morning, as John and I were eating breakfast, I looked outside and spotted a moose in the front yard. I haven't seen nearly as many moose this winter as I had imagined so I was excited to see this one in such close proximity. I happily snapped pictures as the moose got closer and closer to our house (see the smile she's got on in the second picture). Then, she got very close to our house and took a swipe at our bird feeder. She walked around the back of the house and munched on our compost for awhile then hopped the fence over to neighbor's and was gone.

Tide & Ice



A little video taken on my phone from a pull out along the Turnagain Arm on a lovely winter afternoon. I was driving from Anchorage to Girdwood and it was so beautiful that I had to pull over and marvel.
