such incredibly gorgeous pics
Makes me want to be there. (I live in AL) So so gorgeous.
I would love to be there. I am terrified of bears though.
I love reading some of the Alaska threads especially the ones about cabin building. You all are so adventurous! Thank you so much for sharing the gorgeous pics.

And I just saw the ring and you two--
congratulations

Yup and your shots reinforce my memory of the place, it certainly does look like the Denali we fell in love with while we were there, Thanks Rance, I needed that.

I am soooo jealous! Aaaahhhhh, that ring is GORGEOUS! So SHE proposed, huh? Smart lady, that one. If you send me a photo, Rance, of you and your ladylove, (be sure to fill the frame from bust to crown of head - see my gallery to see layouts) I will personally paint your portraits as a wedding gift. If you send me via email a mailing address I can ship the canvas to you (8 x 10 matted). (will send a digital set to your email). Congrats!
(pouting, arms crossed, foot tapping) I'm still jealous.

[Rance]

Sort of! A picture of us bust to crown. Hmmm. Maybe we can get one around New Years or next spring.

And ain't you married? So...it never would have worked out between us!

Thanks for sharing Rance. With winter coming into Wyoming quickly, I wish I had made it up there this year. We've had our first few snows so I won't be going anywhere now until May or June. I'm still trying to convince my husband that the future is in Alaska and he'd do great being as how he's a Master Electrician.
Maybe we'll see you on the road next year.
I remember the first time I saw Denali it was breathtaking. The clouds slowly parted and drifted away and she lifted her head up into the bright sunshine. Amazing.
