Pictures from Alaska

The pictures are large in size. It will take time to download them. If you roll over the thumbnails you will be able to see large picture in the middle window.

You can see me standing in the largest gold pan in the United States! Right next to the gold pan are the statues of three gold panners. There are six holes, and they are all decorated with large cardboard figures and discarded Christmas trees. It is called the Nome Forest. the great map that is in the Iditarod Trail Headquarters here in Nome. They update it every hour.
Check out the price for a gallon of gas. the $2500 in gold nuggets that were given to Doug Swingley. the Red Lantern Award, waiting there to be given to the last musher in to Nome. a very large check for $60,000 that goes to the first musher in to Nome.
