So glad that you had a good time, got to do different things from the last trip, and came home safely.

Wow! Alaska has never really been on my radar of places to visit. (Probably only because I don’t know much about it other than where it is on a map.) Those videos are certainly making me rethink that.

I’ve never seen anything like that before…

I grew up in Anchorage, and then spent many years in Coastal Alaska towns – so much fun to read through all this, and see your pictures and videos.

Hey, Beth. I’m just using a three-year-old Canon point-and-shoot digital camera. It records video in 640×480, though its zoom sucks. In fact, the zoom sucks so bad (and I want higher resolution video) that I’ve begun researching other options, both digital cameras and video cameras. Not sure what I’ll end up doing, but I’ll have something new by the time I make my trip to Colorado in July!

wow, I finished the story. the video helps convey the beauty of the area a LOT more than pictures would. Are you using a digital photo camera that has built-in video capability, or is this a real video camera? And what are you using for editing?

Dave, “lackey” is in quotes because that’s what Karen and Audrey called it, not me. :)

Just as an aside, they generally prefer not to be referred to as “lackeys”. The technical term is usually deputy or assistant attorney general. Just so you know.
