Living In The Great Land. Why Did The Bear Cross The Road? Thursday, May 19th, 2005. Long and busy day today. I left Juneau on the fast ferry Fairweather to Skagway, where I hooked up with Alaska Direct Bus Line (call 867-668-4833 in Whitehorse and ask for Henry, it’s literally the only way to go from Skagway to Fairbanks by land) for the trip over the mountain to Whitehorse. Tomorrow it’s on to Fairbanks — a long but very scenic bus ride. Filed under: Alaska Life. Elise Tomlinson, Artist.

Living In The Great Land. Steamer Yukon at Nenana. Saturday, June 18th, 2005. The reason it’s been so quiet here is that a day after getting back to Juneau I came down with a vicious summer cold. I’ve been laying on the couch, drinking mint tea, coughing, and watching two weeks of gorgeous sunny Juneau summer slide by outside my window. Other than forays outside for cold meds and cough drops, I haven’t been anywhere or done anything. And a detail from the same postcard:. Filed under: Alaska History.

Living In The Great Land. Badger Towing Goes Racing. Sunday, May 29th, 2005. Back in Fairbanks, but had damn little time to blog so far. Brought Dad in on Thursday, but everybody at Badger Towing was gearing up to go racing at the Mitchell Raceway. Motto: “Drive Fast, Turn Left.”) My car needs a little work, but it will have to wait — when the racing season is about to start, nobody at Badger Towing has time for anything but racing (and, well, towing of course).

Living In The Great Land. Thursday, May 26th, 2005. In Eagle, posting via painfully slow dialup-over-satellite (the local telephone system connects to the world via satellite, as is common in the Alaskan bush). Data connections here are always very poor. I’d curse the local phone company, but its employees are guys I grew up with. And they shoot better than I do. (Hi, David! Filed under: Alaska Scenery.

Living In The Great Land. Friday, May 13th, 2005. Alaska. The Great Land. The Last Frontier. Seward’s Icebox. Seward’s Folly. Why blog about Alaska? My life here isn’t that exciting, but I never grow tired of the setting. It’s worth talking about. I don’t have a romantic outdoorsy profession — I’m not a logger or a fisherman or a gold miner or bush pilot or an oilman or a fur trapper or a park ranger (. Thanks for stopping by!

Living In The Great Land. There’s A Moose! Friday, May 13th, 2005. This photo is to explain why you won’t see too much of my photography on Alaskan Blog, and why you’ll be sorry when you do. I took this with a cheap sub-megapixel Sony Mavica in May of 2001, on the Taylor Highway, somewhere in the vicinity of King Creek between Polly Summit and The Flats:. 8221; accompanied by squealing brakes and tires skidding on gravel. I can’t see any antlers! Can you see any antlers? Filed under: Alaska Life.
