Along The Road

The Long Road to Anywhere

Ah, roads, roads...it has been a while since I had a travelling companion. My friend Alexis flew up to Anchorage to share the trans-Alaska/Canada drive with me. Here are some of the things we saw along the way:

Bear cub foraging by the side of the road Along the road out to Hyder, Alaska, this little cub was browsing in the grass along the shoulder.

Not so much glacier as there used to be A little bit further down the road...

Waterfall out of the mist

Not your usual concrete deer... Deer foraging in the city

“Say it again, Ms. Preston. Michelle. Please!”

Mr. Burkhardt was obviously getting desperate. His face was trembling. A look of deep passion was fighting with the fiercest, sternest look Michelle had ever seen. She closed her eyes and reached down into a well of strength she hadn’t known she possessed. She opened her mouth. She said, “Yeah!”

The word came out with a deeply satisfying, dead-flat certainty. She opened her eyes. She and Mr. Burkhardt blinked at each other.

There was a scraping groan from the front of the car, and they both turned to look in time to see a large branch, from the sycamore tree against which they had stopped, slide slowly down the hood and disappear in front of the car.

“Woah,” Michelle said.

“Yeah,” David replied.
