Second Largest City in Alaska

Mon, 25 Jul 2011 | By mdcamps | Views [597]

I've made it to Fairbanks! The Alaska Highway (connecting Alaska to the lower 48) was beautiful. The stretch through the Yukon was the most scenic thus far, or maybe that is just because I love the provinces' slogan; 'Larger than Life.' The road was ... Read more >

Santa's Coming, Santa's Coming! I know him.

Mon, 25 Jul 2011 | By mdcamps | Views [423]

Buddy the Elf, what's your favorite color? I visited the North Pole today! It was AWESOME. Shannon was not as amused as I, but I guess he has just grown up too much. I saw the largest Santa statue ever, sat in Santa's sleigh, practically pet the reindeer and ... Read more >

I drove the Alaska Marine Highway

Mon, 18 Jul 2011 | By mdcamps | Views [435]

First off I will start by stating my extreme fondness for ferry rides. Being on the open water, wind blowing your hair back, the freedom to move around, and the smell of the sea make ferry's the best form of transportation around. Thus you can properly ... Read more >

What I wish Mama had told me

Sun, 17 Jul 2011 | By lakisarah | Views [234]

I wish she had told me that I'd probably fall in love at the wrong time,   and in the wrong place. I wish she would have told me that love is as love does and it isn't as easy as it looks. In Disney movies the princess never gets her heart ... Read more >
