Alaskan Glacier

It has been a hectic week moving the contents of our home in Keystone Heights (officially closed on as of just moments ago) to the house we will be renting in St. Augustine but we are finally done! Now, onto moving out of the house we have been renting in Sebring. Tasha did a great job releasing things we no longer needed and getting everything packed and Diana was incredibly helpful as well, particularly with keeping Edmund occupied. I'm back in the office and using a little lunch time to get this out.

Today's photo is of an Alaskan Glacier taken during a cruise along the Inside Passage last summer (thanks P&Z). At the moment, I can't recall which glacier this is but believe it was in College Fjord.

It is hard to capture the immensity of a glacier in a photo, but to give it some perspective, the wall of ice you see is 200 to 300 feet high and is the face of the same glacier that is in the background flowing between the mountainsides. We are so grateful to have been able to go on this trip...the opportunities to take photos were limitless. Expect more "Inside Passage" photos in the future.
