3 favorite places...



This is Seward, Alaska. It is one of my absolute favorite places. It is my favorite of all the places we went in Alaska. It's really small and I love everything about it. The drive from Anchorage to Seward was amazing. We went there our very first weekend in Alaska with a couple from church. We saw tons of different animals there. I could go on and on, but you just might stop reading!!



This is Denali National Park (Mt. McKinley). We rode on a bus just like the one in the picture for eight hours total just to see it. (It was four hours each way.) There was a longer tour, but with a one and a three year old, it just wasn't possible. We had a great time, but it was cloudy, so we couldn't see Mt. McKinley. On our way home to Anchorage, the weather was great, and we were finally able to see it!


I have this one last, but it is really most dear to my heart. (I'm too tired to move things around!) This is a picture of a war memorial in Sewanee, Tn. You can see this cross from the valley down below. It's part of my childhood, and one of my oldest memories. I've always loved going up the mountain and just driving around and looking at all the amazing things there are to see. I tried to download a picture of the natural bridge, but it didn't work. I might try again later, but I really want to get this post on here so Kelli doesn't give up on me!! :) Just kidding!

So, that's my three favorites. It was really hard for me to decide, but I just kept coming back to these. I definitely choose mountains over the beach any day, (although I enjoy the beach too).

That is an amazing pic of the Cross! I grew up with this Cross as did my parents! I'm glad it is a favorite of yours, Libby.

Those are great places. It's so neat that you took advantage of your time in Alaska to see such amazing things you'll never forget. Love the cross too!

After all these pictures from you, Haley, and Kelli I am ready to go traveling! I want to see these places. I never realized until now, after seeing all these, how untraveled (if that is a word) I am. Chris and I need to get going!
