The last month has flown by. My married pregnant daughter was taken off of work and has been on rest since the middle of March.
Since driving has been near impossible for her I've been chauffering her to appointments and spending quality time watching my granddaughter grow through weekly ultrasound exams. (Boy, have they improved since my kids were small. It's totally amazing the detail that one can see on screen during one.)
I just wated to let the community know what was going on and keep you posted as timely as possible.

It's bitterly cold in Minnesota
Wednesday, February 20, 2008, 11:00 AM CST [General]
This is the first gloriously sunny day we've had in the Twin Cities in weeks, but with the clearing over night, temperatures dipped down into the double digits lows across the state with over-lapping windchill warning's and watching from Northern Minnesota down through parts of Iowa and well into areas of Wisconsin. Here's a current map here:
It's -19 and the air is so sharp and dry, you'd expect sparks flying off your apparrel when you walk.
I was planning on taking a few photos today, but my rechargeable batteries don't do well in this weather.
Enjoy your day!

Hi Jenal,
WaydeI'm glad you liked the aerial photos. It is a whole different perspective up there and a great way to get a feel for Alaska's incredible scale and beauty.
As far as your bear photo, it's hard to say without seeing it but looking at the light in a photo usually decides weather or not to take it. If the bear is in deep shade it may be very hard to bring any contrast to him. Some photos, like that, are worth taking not as art but to remember what an awesome thing you witnessed!
