Fairbanks, AK

We arrived here today. My Birthday. It was sunny allday and it was so hot here at 10:00pm AK time thaat it felt like you could get a sunburn. The country side change on the way here. Still trees and trees but a different kind. The frost line is 2000 feet. We are not high above sea level but we are in the permafrost.
Last Thursday we toured Denli National park. We went in to the park 63 miles. We barely schatched the surface when you consider that the park is 6 milion sq miles. We saw moose caraboo, wolfs grizzley bears. We were on a bus and they were quite far from us. Some times I guess they come close to the road. You can hike it the park but you must get a permmit and have exensive training on how to avoid animal contact.
We will be flying to Barrow tomorrow. It could be 50 degrees there. We could get socked in and have to stay over night. Guess we will have t0 be suprised.
Still having rouble with the pictures. At least I am on line.
Love to all
