Update #12: Alasktastic.

Posted on September 6, 2009

Just thought I'd drop you a quick line to let you know that Alaska has been exactly as wonderful as one might expect from obsessively watching Northern Exposure or Discovery Channel. I have exercised my skills as a wildlife photographer (Oh yes, there were bears. Bears and bears, and as a bonus, bald eagles!), wished often for a telephoto lens, and eaten more wild blueberry pie than is probably healthy.

Tomorrow I make way back to "the lower 48" where I will begin to sort through my photos for your viewing enjoyment. Thanks to all of you who helped make this happen; I hope the last 8 states on my tour can follow up on this!
