Happy 2008!
I returned to Bethel Monday, January 7th. The weather has been below zero and everything is frozen solid. Brrrrr! I had a great time in Washington, visiting friends and family. I took my sister Robbin to Ocean Shores for her first trip to the coast and had a unforgettable fondue extravaganza on New Year’s Eve. I enjoyed good food, good company and good shopping. Too soon it was time to return. Smores is becoming quite the seasoned traveller. She didn’t make a peep the whole trip. Anchorage airport has “rest” rooms for rent by the hour so I took an hour of my layover to stretch out and let Smores out of her carrier. What a great concept!! Why don’t more airports have something like that? The room had a tv, love seat with reclining seats and a computer and printer.

Next on the agenda in Bethel is the Kuskokwim 300 dog sled race which starts on January 18th. The river “truck road” is offically open so cars and trucks can be seen coming and going from Bethel on the river. I’m not brave enough to try it just yet - I’ll wait for a few more weeks of below zero weather to add to the river ice thickness. After that - I’m game!! Enjoy these recent winter pictures.
River travel - not only for humans! Rush hour?
