The last frontier

Oh man, this is why I'm always so homesick! my mom sent me pictures, the moose are in our back yard all the time and Denali (Mt. McKinley) is sooooo pretty. She took the pictures just down the street from our house of Denali and it is at least a 5 hour drive to get there! doesn't it seem like it's right there? ahhhh so beautiful I don't know if I can wait until Christmas to get up there.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

This is what My wonderful husband finds while taking down the gross shed in the back of our yard...he says that potatoe bugs are harmless but any but that looks like that and takes up the palm of my hand is probably the scariest thing I've ever seen! I know I'll go to bed tonight and it'll be sitting on my pillow!!! he also found all kinds of spiders and black widows to add to my terror
