SEP 29, 13 .. AUTUMN COLORS .. PART III

Another stunningly beautiful day here in Anchorage Alaska.  We all know the long dark nights are coming with snow and cold so we treasure this time of year.

Several more photographs of our immediate neighborhood.

I wish I knew why-oh-why I can no longer consistently get all of my photographs to post in the extra-large format as you see in the above photos!

Not that the winter is not beautiful.  But autumn is a treasure here and elsewhere.

SEP 28, 13 (1/2) .. AUTUMN COLORS .. PART I

We had a great autumn day today and I wanted to post a few photos while our weather is still so pleasant.  

If it was dark and raining .. I would not feel like posting these brilliant scenes showing where we live in Anchorage.

What a beautiful day!

SEP 25, 13 .. ' TERMINATION DUST ' .. PART II

Several more photos of the ' Termination Dust ' seen here in Anchorage, Alaska.

' Termination Dust ' is the first snow to appear on the local mountains and means the ' Termination ' of summer and the approach of winter.

SEP 24, 13 .. ' TERMINATION DUST ' .. PART I

In Anchorage Alaska .. one sign that summer is ending and winter is beginning is when we see Termination Dust on the tops of the local mountains.

Termination Dust is the TERMINATION of summer. It is the first sign of snow that suddenly appears at the tops of the mountains that surround Anchorage.  As the days pass this snow slowly works its way down the mountains until the snow reaches the ground adjacent to our homes.

Below are two photos taken this evening of some Termination Dust near our condo in Anchorage.  You can clearly see that the ground upon-which-I-stand is not yet snow-covered.

 

Winter is now on-its-way!  Cap and Patti

SEP 20, 13 .. PATTI AND CAP ..

I have just put up a lengthy post at .. baba kaps doxology. You may want to run over and check-it-out.

Below are two recent photos of Patti and myself that I wanted to share with you.  I do not recognize myself without the eye-glasses I have worn for sixty-two (62) years since 1952.
