Some peaceful images of Alaska for the night owls and early risers
Eklutna Lake, October 14
Sunset at the Campbell Creek estuary, October 15. Mt. Spurr volcano (which last erupted in 1992) is in the distance.

Sleeping Lady (Mt. Susitna) would be off to the right, out of the photo, or kind of behind that hill on the right. When I get onto my real computer, I'll post some pictures for you. This Campbell Creek estuary is the newest Anchorage park, and it's really nice, a good place to watch for wildlife and birds in the summer because no dogs are allowed. It's south of Kincaid Park and Dimond Blvd. on the west side of town.
Richardson Vista Apts. are still there, although they're called North Pointe now. I haven't been over there in decades. My ex-husband used to have some rather unsavory friends who lived there, and I kind of avoid the area just because of the bad memories. You would be surprised at Mountain View now. They've built a couple of really big shopping complexes over there and people have been making an effort to clean up the neighborhood. It has attracted quite a large immigrant population and was recently determined to be one of the most diverse neighborhoods in the US.
And, yes, I remember the Woolworth's, too. 
when I was there it was lower enlisted off base housing of a sort.
gaud I smoked a lot of weed in that place, Richardson Vista, that is.
This is last April
These were taken in the past couple of weeks
Are you homesick yet?
