Sledding in the Chugach

Like an idiot, I took the camera with us yesterday when we all went sledding in the foothills of the local Chugach mountains, but forgot to take any actual pictures. At any rate, Malcolm is a fearless sledder and Chloe enjoyed walking (with help) in the white stuff. We all had a blast. And when we were finished, we checked out three moose having lunch a stone's throw from the road, including one bull with massive antlers. So far, we've collectively seen about ten moose, four bald eagles, one black bear and an assortment of Dall sheep, spawning salmon and other birds and small mammals since we arrived in Alaska.

It's almost 8 am at work on Monday, and 15 degrees outside, with an inch of snow on the ground. Happy Halloween.

ps. We're going to brave the weather tonight and try trick-or-treating at some houses. Wish us luck.
