ALASKA!!!!! (really Long Post)

I know, I know. It has been WAY to long since I have posted.... I lost Interest, Motivation. I was being lazy, unfocused and distracted.

I promised people especially when I came to Alaska I would make sure to Blog. Again the same reasons as before were still here, and have not gone. So I am sitting here at the library waiting to meet up with some friends. and I have had this post with Pictures waitin to tell about my Alaska adventures, and it has been waiting for like a month.

So I am finishing It up and I hope to make this a regular thing. I haven't gone "OUT" and expereinced much. This is mainly out on field trips with the kids. My co Pilot was taking the pictures, I weeded through and found the ones I liked and Thought I would show them to you... A lot of the scenery has changed since my first week here.

Flowers and trees have blossemed. the Sun is sunny, even through the clouds. It is turning out the be a awesome place for the summer.

So Here is my first shots of ALASKA,

Eklutna Lake, (sp?)

my first weekend was a staff camp out here... Awesome

It was SOOO blue

A tuft of Moss.... it was so squishy and springy.

I thought I was COOL!

I think I got 3 hrs of sleep the whole night... not cuz it was so sunny, I have gotten over the sun

No, I was COLD, and I Hate camping on the ground. I am a cot sleeper. So having not camped in years I did not enjoy this aspect of it. I was BEAT, literaly there was a root at my feet, one in my back, and I was on the slope. Oh and I didn't have a warm enough Bag. SO I was COLD!!!

Portage Glaicer Lake... It is beautiful... check out the glaicer in the background

Knik Arm... I think

I can not get enough of the blue Iceburgs. LOVE

First Alive Moose ever... He was making a snack out the garden in front of the center.

It was fun. He Stuck around for 15 mins or so. The kids who are locals, and see a lot of these, were more amazed than I was. I got over him after a while and continued eating. The kids We had to tell to go back to their lunches.

They are SOOO Tall
