Sunset light creeping up the mountainsides

Day 88 - Merry Christmas!



A very merry Christmas to all!

Day 87


Kind of an overcast, gloomy Christmas Eve day.  Oh, well.

Day 86


A slightly clearer day today - at least for a while

Day 85

So here's the sun rising over the mountains today - at around 11 am!  I had to turn way to the right to get the sun in the shot, as sun rise has moved far south from where it was just a month or so ago.  Pretty soon it will start moving back. For those of you playing along from elsewhere, the sun will set today around 3:45 :)


And here's the usual view straight out the window.  A bit clearer today!

Day 84


So the big view's obscured again - because it's snowing!

Day 83


Finally the fog lifted a bit!  Still not a bright sunshiny day, but at least we can see our mountains.  Different work hours this week will allow me to monitor the situation more closely.  So that's something to look forward to!

Day 82

Sunday 12/13 - fog continued all day, which made for some pretty trees, but not much of a view otherwise.

Day 81 - Now THAT'S Alaskan


It looks like a polar bear is going to wander by any minute, doesn't it?

Day 80 Ice Fog!


A rare midweek day at home!  We had ice fog today, which is fog that freezes fast to everything.  It is beautiful!

Day 79

Another beautiful sunrise!  This was about 9 this morning...

Day 78

Beautiful Sunrise!

Day 76


Yay!  Snow!


Just around sunset...

Day 75 - Thankful to be here!


Our usual view

...and same again, but closer up

Day 74

Ok.  It's been a couple of day, but I have a bunch of pics to make up for it.  OK, they were all taken this evening, but still...

This is our sparkly porch bear


Recognize the view?  Yes, it's the same one, but now with added snowfall!  It's a special Thanksgiving miracle!

Out of the other living room window...

Day 73


Day 72

OK, so possibly the 365 days are not going to be consecutive...

This is from Saturday 11/21. The issue is that we are entering the period of the year when it stays dark pretty late in the morning, and gets dark quite early - it is literally dark when I leave home and then dark when I get back home.  Pictures of the darkness out the window was funny for a couple of day, but then not so much.

Day 71

Before sunrise...

Just as the sun is setting...

Day 70


Finally a day where we're home in daylight hours and the view isn't socked in with fog!  Drink it in...I know I am.

Day 69

Finally a solution to the "dark in the morning and dark at night" dilemma!  Here's something interesting I saw out of my window at work this afternoon just as dusk was rolling in :)

Day 68


Even though it was dark when we left, cloud cover reflected a bit of light.

Tuesday, November 10, 2009

Day 67


Oh well, a little clearer and brighter this morning, but not by much. 

Monday, November 9, 2009

Day 66


Dark at both ends of the day again - but it's a bit brighter after last night's snow :)

Sunday, November 8, 2009

Day 65


This is the clearest it's been all day.  On the plus side, it's trying to snow! 

As it turned out, it is snowing! 

Saturday, November 7, 2009

Day 64


Yay!  I was finally home while it was light out...and it's cloudy!

Day 63

Day 62

Looks very much the same as day 61...

I think the jitters are not so much from caffeine as from the camera using a long exposure to get as much light as possible. 
On a side note - we still don't have snow!  That is pretty unusual for this time of year.  Also, it rocketed up to 45 F today!  That darn global warming!

Day 61

It was dark when we left (and jittery because of caffeine)...

And dark when we came home. 

I have got to figure out the timer on this camera, so I can get some pictures with light in them!

Day 60


It was dark when we left, and dark when we came home!

Day 59

Technical difiiculties did not allow me to post this last night, but the pic was taken then...

Another pretty full moon night!

Day 58


Looks cold out, doesn't it?  That's because it is!

Right now there's a beautiful full moon illuminating everything.  It was pretty neat out last night, too!

Day 57

A nice clear day - but cold!  It's interestesting watching sunset move southerly along the mountain range.


Later in the day, you can see how far the termination dust has moved down the mountains.

Day 56


Finally got home in the daylight again!  Although the moon is up in this picture, it is around sunset so there's still some light out.
