We're back in the Lower 48 now. I am somewhat transformed...much more relaxed and very appreciative of the ability and opportunity to have visited some of Alaska.
The panoramic views of Alaskan wildlife and sea/landscapes were amazing to behold.
If life's turns had been a little different after college, I probably would have been in Alaska or at least the Southwest today, having worked for the Indian Health Service all these years...but one can only speculate.
If Alaska is a glimpse of what Heaven may be after we depart our worldly shell, then, I'm a believer!
