It's been a while. This is going to be quick. I'm not going to tell a story just show some pictures. Remember you can click the pictures to make them bigger.
We finally found a good time for Ann to come up here to Alaska with me. I had two weeks off and a trip that starts next Fri the 13th....
We just got here Saturday and spend most of Sunday messing around downtown Anchorage at all the tourist trap stores and art galleries.
Today we drove up north along the Knick Arm of Cook Inlet and went up to the Eagle River Nature Center and a short hike. Here's Ann. There is a really fun little observation deck down on the river designed to see the Salmon swimming up. It's past season. No Salmon.

That's Eagle Peak in the background.
After that we drove up to Eklutna Lake and hiked up the Twin Peaks trail. We climbed about 700' above the lake and about 3 miles.
Here I am on the trail up. Bond Peak in the background.
Ann was enthralled by all the mushrooms that grow on Mother Nature's Forest Floor. This was the best one.
Tomorrow we drive down to Whittier, Ak and take a the 26 Glacier Cruise.
On that happy note, I remain,
Dad / Geoff
