                    <title>Alaska Day 11  McCarthy to Valdez</title>
                    <description>Today begins with a little stress factor. Early rise after a not so early to bed to pack up drive the almost 60 miles on gravel road out of McCarthy to a paved highway and hopefully without another flat tire and then another 120 miles to Valdez before noon to catch the half day boat trip to Columbia Glacier in Prince William Sound and then check into a new place in Valdez for the next two nights</description>

                    <description>How does that saying go   She39s back Finally I am getting back to finishing Alaska trip posts for all those who keep asking and have been so patiently waiting.

                    <description>This is the last post to be done while I39m still actually in Alaska. I leave for home on a 6am flight Thursday morning after the most incredible 9 12 weeks traveling all over this astounding state. It has been a busy yet quite reflective last few days. As I39ve looked back I am not even sure I believe all the memories are for real. I have already been asked what was the best and what was </description>

                    <description>Homer and vicinity has been astounding for discovery  drives walks history wildlife and oh yes plenty of rain. Yesterday was clouds and rain all day. There actually was sunshine most of this second morning followed by clouds this afternoon and then rain again. It was great to be out of the rain gear and boots for this one day though. I am thankful for myself and yet hope you39ll join in p</description>

                    <description>The SeaLife Center in Seward is extraordinary.

                    <title>Alaska Update Tuesday Sept. 18</title>
                    <description>Included at least a few of the pictures today. I hiked to Exit Glacier even though it was raining. I was just going to go to the Outwash in front of the glacier but then could not keep from going the extra distance to the viewpoint right at the Glacier. I stopped at taking the 8 miles all the way up. It was a great hike and beautiful to stand there even in the rain and listen to the water rushing </description>

                    <description>Just letting folks know I arrived in Seward safe and sound and planning to be here two nights. The drive was absolutely gorgeous albeit a bit long from Fairbanks  otherwise uneventful as in no problems. Actually had sun off and on all the way here. On arrival here they told me national weather service had now put out another windrain warning for the area covering tonight and possibly two days wh</description>

                    <description>Busy weekend. I am going to head to Seward first thing tomorrow morning since weather seems to have gone as predicted  wind should be lower and just normal rain by the time I get in vs. the heavy rain and wind they had today. I thought it was about an 8.5 hour drive but understand from some folks I spoke with yesterday that it will be more like 10 hours. So heading out early morning to arrive som</description>

                    <description>Hello all from Fairbanks Alaska I39ve had a great week that began by meeting up with some folks I had originally met on the Denali excursion who had also continued traveling in Alaska. We all crossed paths again here in Fairbanks for drinks the first evening Monday evening and then breakfastbrunch the next morning.

                    <description>Hello to all. I have finished all sites I wanted to see and some I didn39t know I wanted to see until I returned here to Sitka after having been on the 8day Alaskan Dream Glacier and Wildlife Cruise aboard the Admiralty Dream. The cruise was everything and more than what was expected. There were just over fifty of us plus the 20 person crew. Our time was filled daily with education adventure</description>

                    <description>What another incredible week this has been Ten people including one guide and me traversed via van the entire Dalton Highway  yes the highway upon which the Ice Road Truckers show is based  So much history culture and life that is not part of that show. It is another world and though Truckers rule the road there is a domain on all sides of that road that is reigned by natural marvels Th</description>

                    <description>Just FYI  I am where I am supposed to be Sitka AK after a wonderful week to the far reaches of northern Alaska.

                    <title>Alaska Update Sunday August 26th </title>
                    <description>I was in Talkeetna until noon and now in Fairbanks. Talkeetna is a small town with true Alaskan spirit. I had splurged to stay at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge with mountain view. Unfortunately the mountains never showed due to clouds and rainy weather but I certainly can39t complain at all. I had two and a half days of seeing Mt McKinley and the whole Alaskan Mountain Range from within Denali. </description>

Denali NP was absolutely awesome I hope to get story and pictures out before I move on Sunday afternoon but we39ll see how tomorrow goes. Right now I am way too tired to post anything other than this quick note just so nobody gets concerned about not hearing anything. I included two pictures just so you know I was really there </description>

                    <description>Breakfast is going to give us all a kick start for our hike  eggs bacon cereal juice bagels or toast and more. Were going to need the hike to walk off the calories. We load in vans to our starting point about a half hour away. Bear and group hiking directions are given and we are off.

                    <description>Had to set an alarm this morning so Id get up early enough to get some wash done and pack up for the week long adventure to go to three different wilderness lodges across the seven days.  Since Im used to simply taking from the car each night whatever clothes I need for the very next day this requires some thought I havent had to do thus far.  Listening and going by the weather reports u</description>

It is beautiful all the same.Breakfast is yet another delight  pancakes sausage and fruit on yogurt coffee and juice  virtually any benefit o</description>

                    <description>The morning started cloudy but pretty quickly began to clear  kinda. I take the beautiful drive back to Delta Junction. It is always nice to go back the other way because it is so different looking at the other side of the mountains and hillsides. The people at the Delta Junction major petro stop at the intersection of Alaskan and Richardson highways were very friendly and all accommodating. I sa</description>
