Visiting the North Pole. Santa was taking a rest so I didn't get to visit with him. The tiny people in front are me and Moe.

A very busy spot, year round.

Santa's elves are making lots of toys.

Our campsite on Chena River outside of Fairbanks.

This is the view from our front window at 11pm.

Its a great time of night cause the mosquitoes are

sleeping.

Its very lush. White birch and spruce trees.

A day of kayaking. Unfortunately we had to go downstream

from our campsite and then the great paddle upstream to get home. Lots of fun as I finally got out and pulled Dick upstream and then attempted to walk my kayak upstream only to be stuck midcalf in muck and very cold muck at that. Lots of giggles and grand memories, The water looks so calm...little did we know.

Life doesn't get much better.....
