On the Way to Work

Saw you going to work today!  How was your day at the office?

A Different View

Things look a little different from over here. Hey Bob, when you get done with your tea, take a picture of that mountain and glacier for me will ya?

Glad to be up here...

Because the wind is howling down there! As you can imagine by the photo, that snow is moving pretty quick. We were well above here and comfy, but for such a nice day above it looked quite miserable below us.

Formations in the Tundra

This set of geographic formations is south-east of Tanana, and north-west of Nenana. Alaska has many square miles and changes form so many times. I never tire of looking out the window.

Happy Thursday

Clear blue skies over Fairbanks.

Not Often...

Not often is there an opportunity to take a photo of another DC6 out on the job.  So when it does happen there is usually one lucky fella with a camera handy.  This time it was not Kenny but he is the one flying the plane in these photos.  From the left seat might I add.

Photos complements of another flight crew member who wants to remain anonymous.

T.G.I.F.

Not doctored or photo-shopped! Just in the right place at the right time.

Have a great weekend!

Mt. McKinley

Top picture is Mt. Foraker on left at 17,400 ft., and Mt McKinley on the right at 20,320 ft. The lower picture is Mt McKinley alone, and clearly shows both of its peaks. The south and north peaks are collectively known as the Churchill Peaks.

Sunny Morning

Enjoy your day.

Lucky Me

Do I ever wish I had been a shop-teacher? Yeah, some days I do. But then I have days like this and think 'How lucky am I, to be doing a job as cool as this?'

Happy Birthday!

This one's for you Pumpkin!
