About Me

My photo
Hello! I am Bethany, a mom of 4 beautiful children, a owner of a dog, and married to a miner/hunter. (Camo is a popular color in our home). We recently relocated to the UP of Michigan from Juneau,Alaska...a huge adjustment. I have a passion for photography and documenting our journey through life. But, most of the time Im busy with my kids, hiding in the bathroom for peace and quiet, or trying to find my dog because he runs away all the time. Welcome to our world...always full of adventure.

EAGLE BEACH

ARE YOU FEELING AS HAPPY AS I AM? There is a 50/50 chance your answer is yes because you live here in Juneau and know exactly what I am talking about. I AM TALKING ABOUT THE SUN!! It shines! There is a yellow thing that exists in the sky! The sky is blue!




Life is absolutely amazing. For the last 3 months I have seen nothing but chunks of ice and snow mountains. Now for 10 days straight, it has been paradise. You almost have this feeling that it isn't real but just a really good dream you don't want to wake up from.



No joke! 70 degrees today and 2 weeks ago,34 degrees...more than double. Neighbors and people you have never met are all of a sudden saying hi to you with big smiles on their faces. It's almost like our little town of Juneau is Pleasantville.






So on Day 10 of Sunshine, I loaded up picnic supplies and beach supplies. This beach is located at the end of the road (25 miles). I knew I wouldn't be back in time to wake Andy up from working nights, so I snuck in and set his alarm.


We met Brooks and her kids out there which turned out to be a very pleasant visit. Plus, she had all the cool toys like the kites and bubbles, and the food. (Ok, so she was very prepared) and me not as much. However, thanks to her, I got a chance to take some rad pictures.
-ENJOY-

I almost laughed out loud that you used the word "rad". I haven't heard that one in a while. But seriously the weather has been so nice. I'm loving it too.

I noticed that everyone is still wearing coats. Interesting look at the grass lands at the storm surge level.
