This is a lovely creek we passed on the way to Matanuska Glacier.

This type of landscape is so large and empty... it looks prehistoric. I wait for a cave person or a dinosaur to stroll around the bend....

We put in an application to rent this house. It's on 1.25 acres in a neighborhood in Peters Creek. That's about a 1/2 hour commute north of the City of Anchorage. But it is technically still in the Municipality of Anchorage. The kids will go to Chugiak High School if we end up living in this house. We're keeping our fingers crossed.

This is the Matanuska Glacier. You can't get much closer than this without a lot of hiking and the fending off of moose.... Stephen took this shot from the Glenn Highway.

We had lunch at this place, overlooking the glacier. This little setting was over the entrance. Inside they had tons of trophy mounts and taxidermy.... A moose, musk ox, bobcat, several bears.... True Alaska decor....
