The DrsC will be traveling for the next couple of weeks. Driving to and from Seattle, cruising to and from Alaska. The other DrC will be lecturing aboard on digital photography - how to take better vacation pix.
We've driven to Alaska, perhaps 20 years ago. You see the inland part of the state plus Anchorage when you drive. This way we'll see the southern coastal "panhandle" along with the capital, Juneau.
As we approach the longest day of the year, and go ever farther north, we should experience what they call in St. Petersburg "the white nights." I remember reading a newspaper outdoors at 1 a.m. without artificial light in Fairbanks on June 21. I'll blog some impressions as we get the chance.
