Warm temperatures and long days in Alaska by Robert SwetzThe temperatures have been heating up in Anchorage, Wasilla, Palmer, Seward, Homer and surrounding areas of Alaska.Temperatures have been reaching around 50-55 degrees and the sun his very hot around the late afternoon hours.What I like so much about Anchorage and other cities is drive 5-10 miles out of the any cities in Alaska and you are in beautiful natural areas like the ones in these photos.At around 6:00pm yesterday the boys and I took a 15 minute drive and captured these great photos.The boys have lived up in Alaska with their mother for 2 years and after we visited their mother working at the mall, I asked them do you know what's so amazing about Alaska?And they said what?Drove 15 minutes south to the Turn Again Arm by the... 04/13/2016

 Female Moose Models for Alaska Bob in Anchorage Alaska She was standing around 20 from me and I was wondering how close I should get to her, because she looked like she weighed about 1000 pounds. All I had was my old iPhone 4 to take these photos because I had left my iPhone 6+ in the car.  As I walked closer to her I saw her staring at me, so I tried to get some small trees between the two of us in case she started charging at me. I was very excited and my heart started pumping faster as I got closer to her.   I was able to get around 5 feet from her before she started walking away, and as I walked away I looked back to make sure she didn't turn around and follow me.  As I looked there she was eating from the tree branches again.I will be going for another hike tomorrow and will be su... 02/12/2016

I haven't had to wear gloves, winter boots, and or large parka winter coats like ever... 02/11/2016
