Somehow, I was suckered into this first "field trip" because it was not very far from the road (just a short walk - very little up and down - and it was supposed to be a beautiful falls - I mean, after all, it is named THUNDER BIRD FALLS!!!!
first of all, we had to sit through about and hour and a half of construction on the Glenn Highway because of construction. When we got to the parking lot for this place, we were instructed to leave a visitor's fee --- State of Alaska, you are so cheap!
Next, I'm certain that all the thunder birds in the world are much insulted with the designation of these diminutive falls having something to do with them -- but, I get ahead of my self.
THE WALK IN AND OUT
Frankly, the only interesting thing on the...
"short" walk in and out was the...
vegetation.
The short hike was was about a mile and it definetely
was UP and down.
Plus, the "skeeters" thought I was a walking lunch...
but they left sweet Sister C. completely alone...
Hmmmm! Go figure.
I saw many fern plants on our jaunt and wished that
I had a pot of soil with me to steal one for our apartment.
Wow! We sat through an hour and a half of
construction traffic for this, huh?
What say we go home --
