this is a picture of the snake river
We are back in Washington today we were at the Columbia river it is a beautiful drive,
okI tried but you cant see on this small picture but there was a moose just crossing the road he just got into the tall grass
Chuck was so interested in this pipeline it is pretty interesting when you see how they laid this pipe there is 800 miles of pipe some above ground and some underground , the above ground pipe has to be so many feet off the ground so that animals can pass under it and they went underground at some points because of creeks and small lakes , on the bigger lakes they built bridges for the pipe

Another beautiful lake.

our last day in Alaska

We saw so many beautiful places this drive is my favorite but the pictures don't do it justice.

Hello all that are following my blog, no entry yesterday we were flying and no pictures. but we are here now and it can be confusing when it doesn't get dark. we had dinner last night at 11.30pm and when we came out of the resturant there was a crew of men painting the building.........now think about that it was daylight at midnight. anyway we went to northpole,alaska this morning.
