Somebody started a thread of bridge photos. Which I missed. So, anyway, here's a photo of the Alaska Native Veterans Honor Bridge in Nenana, Alaska. Love and respect to indigenous American service members past and present. ❤️

This far north it's the time of year where the lightest it gets outside is twilight. So I'm posting a photo taken last fall when the dahlias were still blooming radiantly at the Georgeson Botanical Gardens in Fairbanks. Hope it reminds you of warmer days.

Minus 20F this morning and the sun was just touching the tops of the trees.

Boreal forests are the places where magic is born. (Creamer's Field Waterfowl Refuge, Fairbanks, Alaska.)

It made me cry.

Winter tree on the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus a few years ago. Just a quiet moment for you in between posts about current events.

Okay, putting a toe in the water. Here is a shot of dwarf dogwood (Cornus canadenisis) on the floor of the boreal forest here in Alaska, taken last summer. To decorate your day.
