Haven't a clue how to pronounce your name, but where you live is very beautiful as well

When I see Donnelly, I know I'm getting close to Ft Greely and Delta. It's a pretty good landmark. But whatever you do, don't eat at the Paxton store, the quality has gone downhill. Just finish the drive to Delta or if you're going in the other direction, go on to Glennallen. Unless they've improved in the last year or two.

Went out today just as the clouds were coming in, though still a great day.

I used to stop at the Paxon Lodge on my way to Chitina and back years ago (in the '80s). The food was good then. A very nice breakfast was served at the Chatanika Lodge a few years back (big omelet), but i haven't gone to eat there for a few years. Also, on the way to Anchorage, before you get to Nenana, the Monderosa had some good fast foods (hamburgers) not too long ago. The best ice cream (chocolate/peanut butter) was served at the Knotty Shop near Salcha a few years ago (before the place was sold-out). Now I see a lot of Chinese-made stuff in there, which was not the case with the previous owner.

Now, fuel is cheaper at the gas station as you leave Delta Junction down the Richardson, toward Ft. Greely. Too expensive at Glennalen, so I never buy there.

I was planning on driving down to Summit Lake, but as I neared Black rapids, it was snowing, so I turned around. I saw several moose moving across the road, but they didn't stand long enough by the road for me to take pictures.

Nephler,

The flying eagle photo looks great!
