Thats all for now.
 
Thanks Dave, Looks like a fun trip. I took a 10 day trip to Alaska in the early 80's. I didnt see much of the state,I couldnt drag myself away from the Kenai River and those giant Kings long enough to see much. One fly in trip to the Upper Russian and some rainbows. It is truly the last frontier. Enjoy and keep the pics comin

Glad you trip is going well. My wife took a picture of the same sign...nah, I think all the 'Bow Hunting Only' signs look like that. Chuck

I was lucky enough to be invited to judge the Fairbanks Retriever field trial in the middle of July, they paid my airfare and lodging for four days. We added a $75.00 companion fare for my wife with all of our frequent flyer miles, and my best friend who I haven't seen in ten years lives in Fairbanks, I lived there for four years in the 70's. Anyway we are staying two weeks starting the first of July and plan on doing a lot of fishing and sight -seeing. My wife thinks Montana is getting too crowded and is interested in moving to Alaska, she was a real city girl, she worked as an engineer for Pacific Gas and Electric for 15 years in downtown San Francisco before we got married and moved to Montana, now she's totally country.

I think I have some handle material and I know where to get some sinew...

hey and isn't the "you are here" thingy supposed to be a red DOT ?

Jeff, I don't think moving the rug would make much difference,,,,,,,, I usually on the wrong side of the line half the time anyway. BWAAAAAAAAAAA
 
How much obsidian [font=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]do you need and how big of a piece? It lies all over the place around here!
