The Alaskan frontier, Snow cold & wild with the setting of the Sun bringing darkness at noon. Surrounded by the Pacific & Arctic Ocean, along with the Bering Sea, it stands as a Star State. Chinook Salmon, Steelhead Trout, King Crab, Northern Pike, & Lobsters are fished from fresh water streams & Ocean beds. Wildlife flourishing with the Polar Bear, Grizzly bear, Wolves, Wolverines, Sheep, Bison, Moose, Elk & Foxes roams the vast terrain. Whales, Walruses & Seals live in the Seas while Hundreds of bird species fly. Our National bird, the Eagle soars around the Tallest Mountain, McKinley. Alaska was a pioneers dream, Standing so high in Latitude above the entire world. As genuine as a gold mine, with the sled dog races led by teams of Alaskan huskies lasting for only a day. Why they made an Obstacle out of the event of a 1000 mile race is mind boggling. It’s initial name was Fur Rondezvous, where dogs were treated decently, being well fed without over excursion. One thousand miles is too far for a car to drive, let alone a sled dog. Each year since the renamed event called Iditarod enslaves hundreds of dogs to endure. Like a memory of an old commercial of the Native American on a conoe paddling through garbage showing tears in his eyes. How can a genuine Gold mine State turn into Fools Gold? Where are the voices of the Park rangers & guardians of what should our 49th National Treasure?

The Singer So Shy
She stood near the cold fireplace, watching the second-hand tick down to the hour. In another minute, the clock's bird would emerge and warble the hour. She reached up and touched the clock, tracing the gentle slope of the farmhouse roof, then trailing down the lilac strewn side, to the white fence framed dooryard. She wished she was there, where the air would smell of lilacs rather than smoke.

The Forgotten Garden
Chapter 1: The Hidden Garden For years, the old garden had been shrouded in mystery, its secrets buried beneath a tangle of weeds and vines. The abandoned mansion it belonged to stood silent, a relic of a forgotten era. Rumors whispered of ghosts and curses, but there was something about the garden that called to me, an irresistible pull that I couldn't ignore.
