In The Deep Muddy

We arrived in Anchorage again on the 12th to pick up our rad friends Allison Empey and Jeff Crompton from the airport. It seemed funny picking them up in their town, but incredible to see them none the less. We had an amazing day with them down at the beach playing in the mud (actually glacial silt) and organized ourselves before heading back to Toronto to see Andrews family and his best friends wedding, but that post is for later. Here are a few of the shots from the incredibly warm day in Anchorage!
Jammin' and drinking growlers.

Some kids took playing in the mud to a new extreme!!


Buddha jump!

Chill out eh'.

Apparently this glacial silt can be incredibly dangerous. One guy got stuck up to his waist and when the helicopter came to rescue him, they ripped him in half trying to pull him out! So always play in the glacial silt with a buddy.

Playing with shutter speed... To infinity!

Much love

Andrew has mad skills writing backwards!!

If you look closely you can see the constellations that make up Alaska's state flag. The Big Dipper and the North Star. Amazing!

We are just about to head back to Anchorage after a hectic few days in Toronto!! Unfortunately we came a week or two too early to really see the magnificence of the leaves changing color but we still had a great time and will upload some pictures soon!!
