What do I love about Alaska?

•  That the weather changes dramatically.
•  The deep dark colors – greens in the trees, greys in the clouds, blues/grays/greens in the oceans.
• Spongy ground
• Wildlife: bears, whales, seals, eagles, etc, etc
• Being outdoors and doing active things
• Yummy hearty food and seafood
• Long hours of daylight
• Quirky small towns where doors are left unlocked and people are friendly
• Ferries that offer free showers, and conveniences like towels, blankets, pillows, mattresses and a solarium to put up your tent!
• Ocean inlets and islands
• Glaciers!

But the ultimate best thing about Alaska?

• ·         Picking wild salmon berries and blueberries everywhere I walk

Even better?

• ·         Putting a wild blueberry inside a wild salmon berry and eating! Yum!!!
