Day 6 found Sonja and my brother itching for a more strenuous challenging hike, so their destination was Rabbit Lake. While they went to explore the area, Stacy and I, along with the kiddos, went to downtown Anchorage. During the summer months, vendors and artists man booths every weekend offering colorful T-shirts, various artistic creations, and all kinds of tasty treats. After browsing around for a while (and digging into a greasy-sugary funnel cake), we headed back to the house. When bro and Sonja returned, we found that Russ had found a little trouble on the trail. Seems like Leo (wonder dog) wasn’t ready to come home yet, so Russ had to go after him, getting a nasty ankle sprain in the process. He put in the ibuprofen, put on the ice, and was out of commission for the rest of the evening. What an adventure . . .

Snow and shorts in the summer. It's mind boggling. :)
