when I get home I'll post some pics... if you can do the trip... DO IT... you'll see some AMAZING country... and I guarentee you'll see lots of wildlife... I saw, Moose, Bear, Bison, Doll sheep, Carabou, Elk, Mountain goats, Wolves, and a couple bald Eagles.

wished I'd gotten pics of them all...
Awesome. I will probably drive down to Oregon because I have a brother who is expecting his first child and I will want to see it. Then drive over to Kentucky and fly home to Savannah from there. Should be a hell of a drive.

Going to start trying to find a job in the am.

Is it true you can get paid to move to Alaska? I have heard that from a couple people with no real confirmation.

Awesome pictures!

Just spent the day getting my passport done. Having it overnighted there and back, as well as expedited on the slight chance I could get it back in time to make the road trip from Kentucky to Talkeetna. Bout call around for jobs until my evening class. Wish me luck.
