grandma and grandpa's visit.....in random order
austin really believed he could hold back the tide
sow and cub eating blueberries, they have to eat 200,000 blueberries a day or 3 5 gallon buckets full.
see the moose in the background?
beautiful vista
teknilika river
walking along the touristy path
sand=fun
it was freezing and they all insisted on getting in the water.
isn't this a great picture?
top of artic valley area, near our home
jace was "hiding"
the payoff
the hard work dipnetting at fish creek. alaskan residents can fish for salmon with a big net, but it's not easy. mike spent a good 12 hours in this creek, he got 11 salmon!
mike looks good in neoprene waders.
austin tagged along on the dipnetting trip. he got a double cheeseburger that was the special of the day. he put the stickers on his jacket so it would say, "double special" oh and he sure is.

Despite all my complaining that you are so far away, I am so happy you and your kids are living in such a beautiful place. Guess we better hurry if we are going to make it up to see you. Eat a blueberry for me!
