Here's a link to a company that creates the photo wallpapers.
ImageWalls.com
Oooooooooh...when you made mention of this earlier, I didn't realize you meant wallpaper - literally! I don't really have a wall for this - but thank you for the link. Wouldn't that be grand?

Outgoing Tides. Pull over at the pull off just before Indian. Or at Bird Point. But it's against the law to cross the tracks there at Bird Point. NEver stops me tho.

Default I've been thinking of moving to Alaska

for over 5 years and just broke out my copy of milepost to look at info and decided I would look at a few pictures here first. 5 hours later I have look at all 166 pages and have made the decision to make that move next summer.

Funny thing is after reading all of these pages I feel as if I know some of you.

I'm really a BIG city person so for the time being it will have to be anchorage plus my eldest girlchild has applied to UAA for their digital arts program and hopefully will be accepted.

The smallest place I have lived in the Lower 48 is where I am at now which is still 500,000 people in Grand Rapids, MI. so it will take some getting used too but Im up for it.

Yes Barkley, there is a red 5,000,000 sticker up there. I'm responsible for 8,721 of those 5 million.
