PHOTOS from my Alaska Vacation

[RubyMutt]

It was a wonderful trip! One of my friends up there I hadn't seen in almost a year, it was nice visiting with everyone, and the scenery was BEAUTIFUL! I took over 450 photos so it's hard to choose which ones to post. If you want to see more the album is here: http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4289516813 (the photos go fron the lastest date to earliest date - sorry)

Nicole, when I started replaying you hadn't posted yet. It means that took me more than 15 minutes to write 3 senteces :rolleyes:

BTW could we make a team and win this contest. Shane and Pere could stay at home taking care of the furries (some one have to. Right?) :D

OK ;) Tomorrow's contest is Canada, another place I'd love to visit, and plenty of Pet Talkers to meet as well!

Not really, it was usually around 60 degrees Farenheit. We even went on a hike late at night (around 11:30) and it wasn't even very cold then. :)
