 PET CT …. is all clear I know I told you all that. But I have to write it again. and again. HE IS CLEAR!!!!!

So we decided to become tourist while we were on our way home. there are places that I have never been. Lived here all my life passed the roads but NEVER went down them. So we have alot of pictures for you … and very little time or space. I will ink a few. and others I will put here. I hope you enjoy the trip as much as I did….

First off … when we were coming out of BIG CITY… we saw the TRAIN. now you cant go without taking a picture of the trains.  we also took a picture of the OLD scary road.

Than once we got into a rest stop close to Alyeska we found this really neat car

 side view

 back endthe front had these really neat lights and the HOOD was something to see. Look he even took the tiem to paint the wheels up pretty.

 the front view.

Than Hubby decided it was time to take a detour. I am excited that he did. look at how pretty it was

Once we got up there…. we were blessed with a view that was unreal. This is the resort.

What a neat place. this is were the wedding couple was to stay for their honeymoon. Her twin sister got her the stay.. what a beautiful place. there is a tram ride that goes up to the ski lodge. midway up the mountain and for only 16$ you can head up there and for 25$ per person you can go up there AND have lunch. it was such a neat thing. I think we might try to take the kids someday soon. Here is the old lifts….Now they have these neat new ones.

 Than we left there to head home…. and we foudn another reason that Alaskans ARE CRAZY…. Yes you see that right he is out there…. sailing on a surf board… in freezing COLD weather. LOL

than we were off on our way home. NOT…. here is the road to Hope and there is alot of just that. it is beautiful. but there is nothing else in there. here is a cafe’. and than more of the road….. than you see this. that is it. Seriously that is it. the end of the road. LOL. so we went back to find the side roads that might. show us more… and there is more.

 THis is the bridge and the river that goes through…

 social hall…

and the house next to it.Old town hope.

  Gold panning stand and another old house

 

Look at the view… and here too “Hope” you enjoyed your trip to Alyeska and Hope…. I know that we did. I plan on going back. and maybe even getting out of the car to enjoy the beauty. LOL. talk to you soon
