Last Saturday we made the trip of a lifetime.  Per my (Will's) desire we went to one of the main attractions of Alaska the town of Circle, Alaska.  It was an amazing drive 3 hours up and 3 hours back to see the town at the end of the Steese Hwy on the banks of the Yukon river.  This drive included the paved road ending at mile 65, hundreds of trucks and four-wheelers getting ready for the caribou hunt, and rain the entire trip up.  As you can see the colors are beginning to change and we were lucky enough to see much of the wilderness.  Needless to say the day was long, but worth it as I was able to accomplish one of 3 feats required to become a true Alaskan...the other two involve catching a Salmon and getting it on in the Yukon river.

Book title a coincidence?  Or not?
We are getting ready for the arrival of our little girl.  As you can see we have all the requirements.  That glider is super comfy and I know that Case and I will be spending many an hour with our new addition, asleep in that chair.  The design of the room is all Case...eat your heart out Design Star!

My new shoes...many are shocked, but the shock is they are amazing!

















A few weeks ago we got a break from the cool wet summer we have been having and took a few hours to visit the Fairbanks Botanical Gardens at the University (who knew).  As you can see there are some amazing flowers and it was truly a spectacular day.  These photos were all taken by Case.  There are many more and they are available for sale via me...







Until next time when there will likely be snow on the ground...
