Welcome to the photo blog for David and Janet Elmore. You can find pages full of photos from our trips with Vanessa or Savanna (our van-based RV) and pages that are a record of events with lots of photos. Many of our travel photos are connected to a map at the bottom of our posts so you can see where we went and can look for photos at specific places.

Below is a list of recent posts.

Petersburg rain

Tue 17-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

Another day of all-day, drenching rain, so we spent the day reading and editing pictures. The only wildlife sighting of the day was a mama deer and her tiny baby walking up the Mitkof Highway. The baby...

Petersburg III

Mon 16-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

We awoke this morning to dense fog out on the bay – couldn’t see the barge and tug boats moored just a ¼ mile off shore. When it began to clear around 10, we headed into town. There it was...

South Mitkof Island

Sun 15-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 2 comments

The adage “Rain before seven, clear by eleven” was appropriate for today. We ended up with a beautiful day in which we scouted out a new beachside campsite (Wilson Creek Area Campground), hiked a...

Petersburg II

Sat 14-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

A very rainy day so we went into town to do our two weeks of wash, see the museum, and use the Wi-Fi at the library.  We also visited the two hardware stores in town to see if they had replacement chairs...

LeConte Glacier

Fri 13-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

In the morning we took a short walk at Blind River Rapids followed by a nice lunch at Coastal Cold Storage, but the big event of the day was a trip by boat to the LeConte Glacier Fjord. We had contacted Scott...

Mitkof Island

Thu 12-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

The sun in our eyes woke us at 4:45. Nice to have sun, but it seemed a little early. At low tide we walked out to the little island across from our camp. All the rocks and shells left at low tide are covered...

Petersburg I

Wed 11-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

Another sunny day. We drove a bit further south to the Greens Camp to check out the camping there. It turned out to be a very large area with 30 or so large sites, many of which are right on the water. We...

Wrangell to Petersburg

Tue 10-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

We got our wish: A sunny day for our trip to Petersburg. Before loading time we took a hike on the Rainbow Falls trail. Another hike through a beautiful rain forest, but this one had 500 feet of elevation...

Nemo Point

Mon 9-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

Again we woke in Wrangell to rain and misty low clouds. But as the day wore on, we began to notice a pattern of more time between the rain showers and less rain with each shower. We headed to a beach on the...

Wrangell

Sun 8-Jun-2014 Alaska, Travel | 0 comments

As promised, it was really rainy and cold. We managed a walk on the town dock during one clear moment and met an interesting gentleman who lives on his boat there all year round. He likes Alaska best after...
