Day 163

10 June, 2009.  Somewhere north of Ketchikan, Alaska… This flower was taken at the big Totem Pole Park they have in Ketchikan…still north of the city…The only thing I have done to it was resized it for 1440×960 Wallpaper! (1/1000, f5, 39mm, ISO 200) The rest of these are taken progressively farther north from Ketchikan.  […]

Day 159, Aboard the Island Princess

Wow, I am **WAY** behind!  Internet was $0.75/minute aboard the Island Princess (one of the very few things I didn’t like!) or $175 for 500 minutes…so I waited until I had a connection in a land hotel.  I have a few minutes this last morning in Fairbanks.  It has been go, go, go! So I […]

Day 158, on the way!

Second day of the trip, Spokane to Vancouver. Leaving Spokane on US2 wasn’t too bad, but… (Nikon Coolpix L11 on Auto!) …It quickly degenerated into miles and miles of miles and miles… (Nikon Coolpix L11 on Auto!) US2 through the Cascades is a great road.  From Leavenworth to Stevens Pass… (Nikon Coolpix L11 on Auto!) […]
