Beautiful Trip to Alyeska



















Vaughn and I took the day today and took a very nice beautiful trip to Alyeska, about 45 minute drive. It was a gorgeous day! We had a nice time going out for breakfast first, then drove to Alyeska. We took the gondola up the Mt. to 2300 feet where the view was absolutely fabulous! We took a few short trails around the top of the mountain, then went down the hill a little to watch the para sailers get their sails ready and run off the mountain and into the wild blue yonder flying like a bird. I love to just enjoy the fresh air and warm sunshine just watching them fly over the inlet. Some day I might actually try it, IF I get my nerve up.
I'm on vacation until next week, so we're hopefully going to do a few short fun trips. It's good for both of us to get out and enjoy life and have a change of pace.
