Reminds our family of The Last of the Mohicans film scene. Only here, we can see where we are landing. This was Moss Glen Waterfalls on a hike with my Vermont relatives.
Only updating to add current photos every now and then! I started this blog to keep in contact with relatives and friends.Please make comments and email me! I was raised to age 12 in Alaska's Interior along the Yukon River. I left then to enter a public high school in Lake Placid, NY and live with my Uncle Mike. A year later, my mom joined me so I could obtain a more challenging education. My sister Katrina attends school in Ruby in a multi-grade class.So do my nephews. My dad is a Koyukon Athabascan Indian and my mom is Caucasian. We have a subsistence lifestyle and my dad makes traditional Native crafts like fish wheels and dog team sleds.He is nationally recognized Master Native Snowshoe Craftsman (see Albertsnowshoes Blog).I like to snowshoe, run, draw with pencil, explore the woods and computer games and meet all kinds of new people.
