Now that I got that issue with the posting fixed, here is another post with pictures of the drive down.

First some absolutely beautiful pictures















In Anchorage, some F-15’s were practicing.


Just one penny!


I guess that is one way to get ahold of someone :)


2:00AM in the Yukon














There was some BIG equipment being used in road construction. They would take trucks like this full of dirt then drive them loaded down impossibly steep paths. It was something!




Sleep!


Buffalo on the road!


Rock Sheep


Another Rock sheep! I love this picture!


In Canada

A Log House plant


At the 108 mile house

The 108 mile house was quite interesting.

(Is this my first comment on your “new” blog?)

I feel sad for the guy with the “One Penny” sign. :-/ He needs the Lord…

My favorite pic: Definitely the buffalo. VERY nice!

Bonnie, what did you like about the Buffalo? That it was on the road, or that it was a… Buffalo? :)

In Alaska, you find that a lot of the “First Nation” peoples will come out in the summer and beg, then go back to their villages in the winter.

I think that it might be your first comment :)

Andrew, we had a wonderful time!

I liked the buffalo just because it’s….a buffalo. I mean, he’s kind of…strangely…..cute!

Um….what’s with the “Please add 9 and 0″ or whatever? I feel like it’s a trick question or something and I’m about to be caught in an embarrassing situation by adding wrong! lol

That question is to defeat spammers, it should be random. Basically you have to add and enter the correct number if you want to post. Without that I was getting a lot of spam-comments.
