This is a view of some Iditarod sled dogs during the 2013 Iditarod race. The photo is from the Anchorage Daily News.

If you're interested in the Iditarod race, check out Dallas Seavey's Facebook feed. His video of a large collection of sled dogs howling at a rest area is terrific.

This photo of a fisherman and a black bear remind me of this quote from Dirty Harry:

If you're ever in Palmer, Alaska, try the Mediterranean Salad at Sophia's KafeNeo. (Fresh baked bread not shown.)

I just discovered this flower and plant garden at the Palmer, Alaska Visitor's Center during a walk last night. It's amazing what you see when walking instead of bike riding (and what you see bike riding instead of driving in a car).

As of late June, 2011, the Alaska fireweed was already growing very well.

I don't remember exactly where I took this photo of some green Alaska water, but it's probably in the Turnagain Arm area south of Anchorage, or possibly farther south in an area that I think is known as Kenai Lake. All I know for sure is that the date of the photo was September 26, 2010, and I was either on my way to Seward, Alaska, or driving back from Seward.
