THIS IS A HUNTER'S DREAM! Who could shoot a Majestic Creature like this? LOOK at the SIZE of this guy.

The only shooting going on here was with a camera because this was taken inside Denali National Park where beautiful creatures like this enormous Bull Moose are protected.  This was the first weekend of Moose Hunting Season too.  Here are a couple more shots, unfortunately they are a little dark so you can't see the size of his head, but the size of his rack should say a lot about how big he really was, he was nibbling on some leaves about 10 feet from our vehicle.

CHECK IT OUT! CATCH OF THE DAY/ 50-60 pounds of KING SALMON or Chinook Salmon- FRESH FISH ANYONE?

Girls beat the boys 2 to 1. Jeff also caught one late. It took us the better part of the day to finally catch these but success was ours. Best part, is you can fish all night and it doesn't really get dark and it's June 29th at about 9:30-10:00 at night. Young salmon swim down river and back out to sea for about 3 years, then they return and swim upstream to start the cycle all over again. The King Salmon or Chinook Salmon are the largest that run in Alaska in mid- to late June early July. They can weigh up to 110 pounds and put up quite a fight to get them out of the water. Several large Kings were caught this day.  There are also Pink or Humpback, which are the smallest, also Silver or Coho, and then there are Sockeye. It makes for quite a long fishing season and lots of fun.

Evie checking out Mt.McKinley on our recent trip to Anchorage.  Mt. McKinley is 20,320 ft high and is the highest mountain in North America. This picture was taken in January on a very clear day.  In the summer it's difficult to see the top of Mt. McKinley due to cloud coverage.

Greetings from Jeff, Margaret, Stephen, & Julia coming to you from North Pole, Alaska, a small community where it's Christmas everyday, the sun doesn't set in the summer, and the Northern Lights are bright and beautiful in the winter.

We do dress warm in the winter.  In our area it stays between 10 to 30 below zero most of the winter which is between October and late April. Occasionally the temp will dip down to 50 below zero or colder, but we have been lucky this year. This is a handmade Kuspic, that is probably not the correct spelling, but this is Native Alaskan handmade and the native Alaskans do depend on fishing, hunting, and handmade goods for income and survival. Real fur coats are worn and very accepted as a way of life in Alaska.

GREAT DANE RESCUE PAGE

Nice Job Sandy, Great Danes are GREAT but sometimes they need our help.  For whatever reasons these gentle giants sometimes find themselves abused and abandoned, and it's up to people like us who love the breed to preserve them.  Jeralyn Phifer and myself participate in dane rescue here in Fairbanks, AK.  It is a challenging process but very rewarding when you see one of the dogs you rescued placed in a loving home, as Smokey was.  He was a Merle boy, neutered and 10 mos. old when he  came into my life and quite unruly.  He was quite an interesting dog and very challenging, but has gone on to attain his CGC and is involved with the Canine Companions which involves children and the elderly, and also proudly marched in the Golden Days Parade in support of Canine Companions this year. What a joy to see this animal so well adjusted and so greatly loved by the people who chose him.  He was about 34" at the shoulders and maybe 110 lbs. soaking wet when I first took him home me.  He is now at the age of 3, 37" at the shoulders and 180 lbs.  What a boy !  SUPPORT the GREAT DANE RESCUE in your area. Smokey passed away in the Fall of 1999 with Cancer, it was a great loss to all of us. Check out this Great Rescue Page.  The T-shirts are wonderful.

There is some GREAT scenery on the drive from Fairbanks to Anchorage which is not quite 400 miles difference. This was a picture taken while driving through the Denali Park area.

Rule #1 with a Moose and her calf, don't ever get between the two.  A Cow can become incredibly dangerous when young calves are around.
