I don't know about riding over that high trestle though! A little scary for me. Thanks for the tour. It looks like a wonderful trip. My friend thinks she was on the same cruise with you as she remembers a family and a couple celebrating their 40th.

Seeing Micah sleeping made me smile as my older grandson was so excited to ride a NYC subway when in town for his aunt's wedding, and then promptly fell asleep after a few stops.Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-23616803594631825002012-09-11T04:23:33.536-07:002012-09-11T04:23:33.536-07:00I can't imagine any place being more beautiful...I can't imagine any place being more beautiful than the places you shared today. I appreciate what you said about the amazing bridge being built, and the marvel of it all. I like how Micah fell asleep during something he could not wait to participate in. That is me sometimes,and it gave me a smile.<br /><br />This trip certainly had to be a huge milestone for the adults and children alike. You documented it perfectly.Just a little something from Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07436711032386582707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-22200930213764800492012-09-10T22:55:53.325-07:002012-09-10T22:55:53.325-07:00Hello, boy all these memories that are coming back...Hello, boy all these memories that are coming back! 1999 and our trip to Alaska with you guys!

Amazing scenery, and it really does give one pause to think of the Gold Rush fever and the efforts that went into constructing roads and bridges in that part of the world.Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-39293225515424143632012-09-10T10:14:41.685-07:002012-09-10T10:14:41.685-07:00I have just read through all of your Alaska posts....I have just read through all of your Alaska posts.

What a fun little town to visit and I'm sure it survives because of the cruise ship stops! You know me...I'd like to poke around in that little cemetery!

The stories told of the hard work and grit of those early miners and settlers makes us wonder if our generation would ever be able to accomplish as much.

He's probably seen it in a book somewhere, though these are great shots and he's always interested in such things.
