The purpose of this blog is not "beautiful photos" nor "ancestor photos," it is to share my "personal life"...in photos. Because "My Heritage is happening"... Hope you enjoy!


Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the number of moments that take our breathe away anonymous

Skagway, Alaska ~ Building Charm

Home of the "Sweet Souvenir"

No we did not go in there, let alone purchase anything. Doesn't mean I didn't want to though!



There's a totem pole!


More temptations...


What do you suppose the building is on the mound? (If you look closely you will see a cross in the windows in front...)

Skagway, Alaska ~ Important Businesses


Where would they be without a bank?



Need a place to stay, if you aren't on a cruise ship. But look below that sign to see another business, so tiny!


The school bus, and brewing company. Oh and something in a blur there...


Here is the United States Post Office...Fire truck...


and most important, the Harley Store!

Skagway Alaska ~ Christmas Shop


Christmas Shop...of course I had to go in!



Didn't buy a thing...so very unusual! The views are amazing.


I loved the art on the rocks!



Just to get to these places on the rocks, let alone stay there long enough to make these so large.
Here it is at a distance.


And one step further.

Nice photo, but the water level is so low...
