alaska–blooms

 

Today I take a break from the action and share with you some of the vibrant blooms of Alaska, including a few wild ones.  By the way, I think I saw more dandelions (in every stage of development) than I have witnessed anywhere else.  Due to extended daylight hours and because of the abundance of rain, plants and trees of all kinds flourish during the summer months in the Anchorage area.
