Anyway, it's a nice way to go. I got in to Anchorage in time for dinner and left after dinner on Sunday night. Sure beats a 6 hour drive each way.
I blogged some pictures from the weekend on my blog. Saturday we went to the motorcycle shop, Thunderbird Falls, Eklutna Lake, Moose's Tooth(!) and Indiana Jones! Sunday we tried to walk through the tunnel to Whittier but got some bad information ("yeah, show up any time before 3:30!" but the last bus left the parking area at 3). Anyway, it was pretty down there too.
After the fun weekend I've been keeping busy around here with work and stuff... the usual. Went out for groceries yesterday and loaded up the panniers. Work has been frustrating/challenging lately. We're upgrading our drafting software and it's slow going trying to learn to do things a different way and trying to make sure things show up the way we want (not easy when I don't even know what they're supposed to look like at this firm!).
Not much else is new... I better find some dinner. Much love, Nubhtars!

Well then that's the way to go, and with gas prices, it's not such a bargain to drive. I'm surprised you didn't have to go through security. I flew from Key West to West Palm and then on to Detroit, and there was the normal security check in Key West. It sure was less stressful starting out the trip at the Key West Airport as opposed to Miami or Ft. Lauderdale, and a much prettier and shorter drive to the airport.
I'm surprised there is no security either. I wonder if there are different rules for Alaska, or do they just figure that no FAA guy is ever going to make the trip up to fairbanks, so lets see what we can get away with...
Glad you had a fun weekend!
Now THAT's the way to fly. It sounds like the olden days.
