Our Mini-Hike

Excursions

We took a short hike up a small mountain above Skagway, and it was actually warm enough that day for us to be sweating in our t-shirts!

We saw lots of really brightly colored mushrooms throughout the woods

This is us pretending to have conquered the mountain (even though we turned around about 1/2 mile up because my sister was afraid a bear might smell the banana in my dad's bag)!

Alaska Vacation

My family went on a cruise in southeastern Alaska at the end of August. It was more beautiful there than I had imagined! We did all sorts of fun things -- from fly fishing for salmon to kayaking in Sitka to flying over the Alaska Range and Mt. McKinley to admiring a 74 pound cabbage at the state fair. Our trip to Alaska was a true adventure!
