the great moose hunt 2009...

Tammy has been here since Saturday and she hasn't seen a moose yet...so i took her over to Kincaid Park, which is home to the largest moose population in the city...and there is lots of creepy wilderness for them to hide out in...and we found 3 of them...this one is of a mama moose who was with a young moose in front of the National Gaurd Air Base...we saw another moose grazing in the feild inside Kincaid park. Its calving season so its a bad time of year for moose sightings.

Trip to Seward

My friend Tammy is in town from California so we took a trip to Seward, AK this weekend...120 miles South of Anchorage. We visited the Alaska SeaLife Center and took a 5 hour wildlife tour in Resurrection Bay.

New Hair

I used to have red in my hair when I lived in California and I missed it...so I brought it back this weekend when I went to have my hair done :)

Volcanic Ashfall in Anchorage...

Around 5:30pm last night the skies darkened and ash began to fall in Anchorage...I was sitting in my living room with the lights off because it had been sunny when I noticed it suddenly got dark, I looked outside and the air was thick and yellow...like the worst smog in LA ever...It also got eerily quiet because people went inside, stopped driving and the airport closed so there was no air traffic overhead. I woke up early (for me) this morning to take my car to the brushless car wash to get the ash off my car and waited about an hour to finally get it clean...

The snow is gray from the ash...

This is the ash that collected on my windsheild
My car is very dusty from the ash all over it
