Happy New Year!

Just as the sunlight hitting the tips of the mountain's peaks gives promise of what is to come, may your 2007 be all you've hoped for and more.

Happy New Year!!!

Weather Front Coming In!!!

The weather was changing, and fast, early this afternoon a I headed down to the post office. Snapped this across Lake Lucille around 1 PM. Looks almost like a small twister in the sky, huh? Given how much the wind has been kicking up, gusts to 50 MPH, a pretty fair comparison, tho' it was just a quirk in the clouds.

Merry Christmas!!!

Best wishes for a wonderful holiday to everyone! With 12" of snow on the ground and more falling, plus more in the forecast for tomorrow, I'm truly living in a "Winter Wonderland."

Mooned Again

Just as was the case on Monday, the moon was up big and bright again at around 4 PM today. I took this shot near Fred Meyers, looking out across Wasilla Lake. The wind had been fierce all day, so the icy surface was largely snow free, creating a nice reflection.

Big Moon Rising

Our days here in Alaska may be getting shorter and shorter, meaning I took this shot, no lie, close to 3:45 PM, but there are obviously perks that help make up for the occasionally all too brief hours of daylight.

I've been busy doing some writing for The Sourdough, an online newspaper, so have sorta been ignoring this blog, sorry. Most of mine will be found under this link, plus those by others. A few of mine may be elsewhere, depending on their topic. For instance, one about the Aurora is under the Science linked one, go figure.
