V-Day Weekend in Anchorage

 

Moose. Oh, our dear sweet Moose. I had to include pics of him enjoying the Olympics, helping us out in the fridge, as well as friendly fun with the dogs. At this point we can’t imagine our life without him.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I was able to capture a quick family picture of everyone on the couch.





Will and I needed to get out of dodge. We planned for Anchorage during Valentine’s Day. Neither will nor myself are big Valentine’s Day people. **However, Dad please keep sending the chocolates.**

Mom, I promise this is not where we live.

On the six-hour drive to Anchorage we saw and heard lots of snow-machiners. One day, Will and I will rent some and become that much more Alaskan. We laughed at the tractor randomly getting gas at Chevron. In In Anchorage there were tons of icicles and an ice sculpture display. There is part of the display where it is intentionally iced and you can slide on it. I tried to get an action shot of Will, but it looks like he’s just walking around. Interestingly enough, the temperature in Anchorage was around 35 degrees. Will and I were walking around in our pea coats. Have we become acclimated? Who knows!

As you can see, the drive back to Fairbanks was spectacular. It was beautiful.

The last pictures include moose that were chillin’ (no pun intended) in our yard and Will actually remembering what a vacuum was. I was so excited to see Will vacuum, I had to take a picture. Yup, it is sad!

Sorry for all the technical difficulties. The powers that be changed the format and it makes it difficult to see what happens until after I publish the post.
