Thanks. To be honest, I am not sure which I like better. The colored one gives an icy, chill feeling, which is somewhat lost in black and white. But black and white does a wonderful job outline the mountains. I am still thinking… 😉 I will post the original one on my next post, and I am looking forward to hearing what you think.

Thanks, Lois. It’s beautiful there! On the second day of our trip, my husband asked me, “You are not thinking of moving here, are you?” 😉

Thank you, Amy. Yes, Alaska! We took 7 days cruise, plus Denali National Park. Rained 50% of the time, but we were grateful it was sunny on that particular day at Glacier 😉

Thanks, Sue. Yes, we took 7 day cruise, plus Denali National Park. My heart would love to travel like you. I mean biking, hiking… I can see there are so many places to go. But my body could only take an easy way 😉

I agree. And I can make up for the fun I’ve missed by reading your blog ;-), which I truly enjoy of doing. By the way, I just finished reading Wild, and felt as if I was on the trail with the author. Ha.

Thanks, Cee. We had a wonderful trip even though it rained 50% of the time. 😉 Alaska is beautiful! I have heard so much about the beauty of Alaska, but I was still a little surprised 😉
I’ve missed you too. Can’t think of any good title for your new challenge, sorry. I am not good in coming up a title. I am so looking forward to seeing how it will work though.

I’m lousy with titles. However, there is one Judy (Life Lessons) suggested I’m going to use. I’ll make an announcement tomorrow. I would like to see this photo in color, I bet it is just as spectacular.
