There were so many interesting things in Alaska to see and share, that I _had_ to make another page. (Hopefully the photography has improved. :) )
This one sorts of says it all. It is a receipt from "The Northern-Most Denny's in the World. About the order: I know--I'm a pig. :)
We saw this particular sight (an AMAZINGLY muddy truck), when we were in downtown Fairbanks. Marius (the dude visible by the door of the @#$%'in' Tempo, actually got the guy to smile and yell for the picture. :)
One day as I was driving, someone said to me, "Um--you DO know that there are two moose there, don't you?" No, I didn't. :) Here is a picture of a moose-dude--nonchalantly walking through the parking lot of an apartment complex.
This one didn't come out too well. The vehicle you see (This was in "bustling metropolis" of Healy. :) ), has a (quite largish) set of caribou horns mounted on the front of the hood. Hmm. . . . -I'll bet you don't see too many of _these_ in Texas. :)
And here is a much closer (about 50 miles away) picture of Denali taken from the Parks Highway. The sheer _size_ of "The Mountain" absolutely boggles the mind.
. . . And here is another one:
And here is a picture of a fire! Fire!! FIRE!!!! (Um. -Sorry about that. :) ) at a party at my advisor's (the one on the left) house. When I was invited to a party at his house, and he _wanted_ me to burn something, I just knew that things were going to be all right this time. . . .
And here is a picture of some caribou-dudes (a new addition) at the Large Animal Research Facility. -I think they were kept just a "wee" bit too close together--as the entire place REEKED of caribou urine. :P
On to more pictures of Alaska, 'n stuff.
