A construction DON'T


A construction DON'T, originally uploaded by aimos325.

a mini-excavator and a plate compactor aren't normally the tools used
to drive pipe for bollards around a hydrant... They also tried
slamming the bucket down on the pipe but alas, they had to bring in a
tiny pile driver to get the job done.

Watched the ferry pull away in Haines. Jen, Meghan and Christoph were
on board! I had driven them down to Haines and then drove back on my
own.

I've driven past Kluane Lake 3 times and every time it's been
spectacular. It's often windy around there but this day the lake was
still...

It was rainy and windy at the top. And when things started getting
more and more like rock climbing on rocks that were getting wetter and
muddier... we decided not to chance it. I think we were really close
so we don't feel too bad... better safe than sorry!

Seems like everytime I'm here everything looks different. I really
need a macro lens-- I can't get enough of the sub-alpine (alpine?)
flora up here.

Andrea and I were picking berries but Bentley found grass. Mmmm...
nothing like some refreshing grass when you're hiking. BTW we're
going back next week-- too early for blueberries.

Somewhere I had read that the elevation gain was only 50 feet on this
trail... But we were much higher than 50 above the water! Ooops!
