Photos about town

Here are some miscellaneous photos.

A ladybug:


Dogs on a motorcycle:


Behbeh reindeer growing up and eating solid food:


Doofi at home:


Busy bee doing her job:


Clouds hanging over the Eastern edge of UAF. For some reason, they just fascinated me that day.


Wild roses I gathered for pressing. I paid dearly for them... they have nasty thorns!


Loot from the Farmer's Market today; basil and strawberry sproutlings:

That's awesome. I especially like the dogs on motorcycle picture. I can't even get my kids to wear sunglasses; I wonder how that guy convinces his dogs to wear them?

And those seedlings look neat. Do strawberries grow wild in Alaska too? I wonder if you just cover up the strawberry "crowns" in the winter they'll come back in the spring? Strawberries must be pretty sturdy as they grow wild in the Swiss Alps, I think....or at least I remember that from _Heidi_

Yup, there are tiny little wild strawberries the size of peas. They are supersweet and very fragile. I don't think you could even pick a basket... you'd squish the ones on the bottom. As for my own (cultivated) strawberries, I don't expect them to last through the Winter... I just treat them as annuals.
