Family trip to Alaska!






Hi to our sweet family from Skagway, Alaska! It's Friday, more than half way through our wonderful cruise. Today was the highlight. We took a helicopter
flight over pretty, partial snow-covered mountains as well as lush green tree growth. We flew about 20 minutes to a remote dog sled camp on a wet, slushy, beautiful glacier filled with 280 barking dogs and 25 dog loving people. We even got to hold month-old puppies. We got to ride a dog sled pulled by 10 excited dogs. Dad and Heidi even got to mush. Mom enjoyed sitting on the sled watching this once-in-a-lifetime site. After the helicopter ride, we shopped in downtown Skagway. It has all been restored. It looks like the old west.
