RE: #wetwednesday - - Week 4 and a couple of walks
howdy there bashadow! I love this post, it's amazing in information and gorgeous photos...I think that top photo of the green stone looks like petrified coral to me but that's just a guess.
The carvings are amazing, I wonder how long it takes to do that kind of thing and then I didn't know you could buy Mammoth tusks, I thought they'll all be in museums I guess.
Any great post. Has it started snowing yet? lol
Not yet, hoping it holds off til Halloween. When I first got to Alaska 30 some odd years or so ago, columbus day October 11th used to be the first snow, now just about Halloween on Nov 1st time frame. It varies. Still in the upper 40's only two days of frosty morn's so far.
well thanks for getting back to me bashadow! I think that Alaska would be a wonderful place for a summer home, like on a lake somewhere but come November I'd head South because I like the change of seasons but not severe cold so I salute you guys for handling those dark, cold, long winters up there!
Oh they recommend people that drive out start driving on the 15th of September, while snow down south start can be unpredictable, it can start in late september in parts and then there is Canada to drive through. They don't call it White Court for nothing, I think they get the first snow. Then the highway to Edmonton can become a nightmare. But then there is always the Jasper Route, more scenic anyways.
