Rev. Paul,
Great pictures!!! Salmon YUM!!!
Great pics, and it's STILL the frontier!
Sandy, I'm not sure I want the salmon that fresh!
NFO, thanks - and yes, it is. :)
Thanks for the tour. I needed a bit of a vacation and this one was perfect.
Vicki, you are most welcome. Sometimes I wish it possible to load all my on-line friends onto a bus & take you around Alaska with me.
Thank you sir. Beautiful.
Wonderful photos! Ah, was always a dream of mine to catch an Alaskan salmon. And stand on a glacier. You live in the best place in the world, Rev. Paul - you really do!
TB - you're welcome.
Chickenmom - I'm forced to agree. :)
The day you find me in a cardboard boat . . . well . . .
Still, ya gotta admire the ingenuity, even whilst marveling at the craziness :)
Cathy, if you're going to sail a cardboard boat, you'd best be a strong swimmer.
