"The Unique Juneau Alaska Fishing Lodge"

Living in the sub artic it is easy to see the effects of global warming. The Mendenhall Glacier, in Juneau, has retreated at an alarming rate since I first laid eyes on it. The artic sea ice quickly disappearing. Permafrost is melting causing buildings to sink in the mud.

For those who like great wildlife photography I am posting a link to my neighbors' web site. Jay, Eileen, Jayleen and Jason Beedle live about a half mile to the south of us. They are the only year round neighbors we have on the west side of the Island. You may have seen some of their photos throughout my site. They all are interested in photography and are excellent photographers. You will find rare shots of breaching whales, eagles, seals and you might even find an occasional shot of the rare and quite unusual Shelter Island Beedle. Here is their link.
