Hope Alaska

So Jed wanted to get out of the condo and see more of Alaska. I always get beat from working 10 hours a day that I just want to sleep. But I bucked up and got in the car and we drove to Hope, Alaska.

On the way there I slept :) and Jed stopped here and there to take some pics. Jed thought this tree was cool. He got back into the car, woke me up, said he was running from a bear, (not really) and showed me these pictures and said, you don't see a tree like this everyday. 



Ok, it is pretty cool and different and I have no idea why its like that. Dad? Maybe you can shed some light on this. It looks like a pumpkin in a tree. Halloween already?




 One thing that I have really enjoyed about Alaska is the outdoors. Now that we know we won't be living here forever, we are going to be more adventurous and go hiking and rafting and take a train ride and more whale cruises and more mosquito bites and more solstice party time.




 Yep, I had Jed take a picture of me under a dead tree. 



 Jed thought the rock was cool. Its also interesting to learn how it was formed. I didn't really like it because it was hard to walk on or even sit down on. So for the pictures below.... sorry if I have a pained expression on my face... you now know why. 





We need pictures at every angle- says Jed :)



Even one on my lap. :) This one is my favorite. Jed couldn't find a good spot because of the rock formation and then the timer ran out. 


I love this video because its proof that I don't believe what Jed says to me anymore. He was trying to scare me, but it didn't even phase me. :)


I had no idea Jed was taping me. I have never rock climbed before in my entire life, let alone go cliff gliding down a mountain side. Ok ok so it wasn't as steep or as hard as I had thought prior to going down but I thought it best to be cautious as I was a first timer. But now we have record of it. Sorry that you have to watch my backside for 4 minutes.   



I figured I would be a little more creative with going up the hill then I was going down. Now I just know that I am cheesy.
