Obama for President!

Thursday's acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention was so very excellent - it was hard to believe Barack spoke for over forty minutes!
This photo is one of my favorites from our Alaska vacation last month. The poster was in the window of a little shop we walked past after watching the salmon swim upstream from the Turnagain Arm up the Resurrection River. There is a bit of irony in the photo after McCain's announcement of his vice presidential running mate. May Obama and Biden be as focused and successful as all those salmon!

Alaska Fishing

Much more about our Alaska trip will follow, but I took so many pictures I still want to edit, it will take me a while to get organized. I did finish this video though; nothing we read before the trip prepared us for the sight of all those people fishing! To add another dimension, I'll add a video of pinks swimming up the Resurrection River in Hope - as soon as I can.
