Walter's Family Cabin in Big Lake - March

Talkeetna Cabin Trips - March






Mark and I had two fun snow machining trips to Talkeetna in March. Once on our own and once with Mom and Dad Cross. While snow machining with Dad, Mark found a nice moose antler. Here is a picture of the new door that Dad put into the cabin that enters into the shop. This room is the right temperature in the winter to be the "refrigerator" and works and is set up with a metal tub for a gravity shower.

Ski for Women - February 3, 2008







This was a freezing day with a high of zero - very cold skiing! We were the Royal Tundra Chicks (thank you Cindi for the Halloween clearance outfits). As usual, there were fantastic costumes. Posted here are the Fruit of the Loom team and the orchestra with an image of the Anchorage Symphony Conductor in the middle.
