HELLA JELLY.

Looks like an awesome trip.

Did you sleep in the school bus?

Nope. Booked B&B's every where we were.

Very nice. That trip is on the bucket list


Oct 10, 2012, 8:29 AM

Trying to decide how old the kiddos need to be before we can start making some trips like these. The youngest is 2 (which is "tasty morsel" size to grizzlies and Sanduskies). I'm thinking when he turns 5 we can start these kinds of trips without having to worry about entertaining him too much. Or maybe just start them now so he gets used to them.

When we get drunk, we fall asleep.
When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
When we commit no sin, we go to heaven.
So, let's all get drunk, and go to heaven!

There were a ton of people with kids. I'd say old enough where they can hike and appreciate the scenery.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

well, I know where I want to go next vacation


Oct 10, 2012, 8:29 AM

was 10 days enough time or should I plan a whole 2 weeks?

Re: well, I know where I want to go next vacation


Oct 10, 2012, 8:33 AM

I'd say the longer the better. It's just expensive as hell so you'll quickly run out of money. I highly recommend K-Bay air in Homer to fly over and see the bears. By far, the best part of the trip.

...I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent.

About 10' was the closest they got. The one in the grass snuck up on us. Didn't see him until he was right next to us. About a 1,000 pound male.

I don't know, but I've been told. Can you confirm?


Oct 10, 2012, 8:41 AM

IS it mighty cold?
