Moose Poopie, 4-28-05

Moose nuggets, these things are everywhere. I had to clean these up to work on a meter base for power today, notice the removal technique. I was gettin some of these to launch at least 40 feet....haha. Funny thing is moose crap is used in a ton of touristy stuff, like earrings, novelty gifts and even incense(not joking).

Fort Richardson, Snowboarding hill.

77 degrees today, that's a record for this time of year. Not a cloud in the sky and it was beautiful. This is a bunny slope they use to train soldiers to ski on, they added the snowboarding ramp for fun. Cool as hell, heh.

Cottonwood Park 4-27-05

This is the park where we stop for lunch in the summer, same place as the pic of the playground with the mountains. Note the sign and the jogger..... yes kids play here, lol. It'll be very green here soon, the snow just melted. We're gettin about 15 hours of daylight right now....soon it'll be about 22, of which about 5 will be like dusk.

Otter Lake , Ft. Rich 4-27-05

Another beautiful day, hiked back out to otter lake, but did not stay long... got this thru the weeds as we were on our way out.

Otter Lake , Ft. Rich 4-26-05

This is where the big beaver lives, BIG BEAVER. This is where Harvey (the photographer) likes to hang out, took us about 20 min drive and a 30 min hike to get here. Was well worth it.

Moose 4-26-05

Almost forgot, 2 yearling moose wander'd into the housing area today. Shot this from my work van.

Otter Lake, Ft. Rich 4-26-05

Went out to the lake on the army base where i work today, to take pictures of local wildlife. The guy i'm with is a professional photographer, works at the same place i do. Maybe i'll talk him into lettin me post some of his....heh. Here he was taking a picture of a swan. I backpacked some of his gear in for him just to check it out.

Went and saw Kung Fu Hustle again tonight, godamn what a great movie... praise the man jeebus for good clean fun.

Fletcher and the rose bush.

4-23-05 Wild rose bushes grow all over earthquake park, it's a place where they show the devastation of the 64 quake. And all the boy cared about, was how this bush kept biting him, hah.
