We were just in Alaska last October. I'd love to be able to do it on a bike though. What a beautiful state!

Was there back in '93;not on the bike. Very beautiful; it is a land of superlatives & extremes.

I'll be there in September. 10 days of fishing with the boys. Drinking, eating, floating and maybe catching some monster Rainbows and Dollys if we're not careful. Alaska is Heaven on Earth! Wish I could live there!

Now that I finished my goal of 49 States. I want to start over. Alaska would be the first place to return to and see more of it. It is a fascinating awesome land.

I like the pic with the train behind you- I'd like to go there one day.
