Hmm... maybe all the grizzlies ate them up because there's a lot of them up there and they look mighty chubby ... =)Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02324458825591614167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331017.post-55960492877929558372009-06-05T05:56:56.449-04:002009-06-05T05:56:56.449-04:00I really enjoyed reading Elain's comment Salty...I really enjoyed reading Elain's comment Salty. LOL And to think that my wife and I were going to go to Alaska in the middle 1950s as Homesteaders to get a section of land free. Sometimes I wonder how our lives would be different today had we done that.<br /><br />And you bunny is a winner. I love rabbits when they are smaller and are busy exploring their new world. They sure go through a lot of my flowers but I don't mind much as long as the stems can rejuvenate the plant.<br /><br />I was just thinking yesterday (this is Friday morning early and it is colder than a witches' tit here in SW Ohio) that I should dig out the bunny pictures that shows one little guy devouring a giant hibiscus blossom.<br /><br />Abraham Lincoln's cousin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331017.post-76119647575959117652009-06-05T01:39:32.631-04:002009-06-05T01:39:32.631-04:00So sweet.

My husband grew up in Beaver Falls, PA, and I have visited in the summer and fall, and in some ways Alaska is much the same. Looking out my window the scene would not be too much different than places in PA. Of course, Alaska covers a huge area and has an incredible diversity in climate, but since most of my photos are from the Tanana Valley in the Interior, that is what I use for comparison. I think the biggest difference is that we have less variety of trees and plants, and a different mix of birds and wildlife. A very big difference is our hours of daylight. Now we are at 21 hours between sunrise and sunset with no full darkness and that will continue to increase at about 5 minutes a day until June 21st, then it will go the other way, so that at the end of December there is 3 hours between sunrise and sunset, but a long twilight time. Also we have snow on the ground from sometime in October until sometime in April. You would also notice a huge difference in the architecture. Fairbanks was first settled in 1902 during the gold rush. You won't see the beautiful old buildings that you do in PA, but then again we don't have any skyscrapers either. I will have to ask my husband what his view is on the subject. Even though he moved away 50 years ago, I'm sure he will think of things that I haven't.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01801967071649685995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331017.post-52197121619250814152009-06-04T20:40:27.814-04:002009-06-04T20:40:27.814-04:00I just love bunnies!
