However, I was stranded overnight, after an overzealous attempt to find an abandoned cannery someone told me about past Orca Inlet. I worked at Cannery Row for two summers from 97-98. I spent much of my time hiking, walking the inlets when the tide withdrew, and getting to know the locals. Your photos of the bridge brought me right back. I sat on the edge with my feet dangling over just watching the glacier. Did you go to the other side and walk among the ice drops? There was a fantastic tunnel of ice with blues and greens, and the light shining through. I wish I'd taken better photos, but you have done it, so my memory can be refreshed. I want to take my husband next summer to yell at the northern lights. They say they shimmer when you do...Best of Everything. B.

I have shared similar thoughts when visiting places that have sneaked into my heart, and yet you know you'll likely not see them again. I call them my Kodak moments but no photo can capture them, you lock them up inside you so you can visit them in your mind whenever you wish.<br /><br />I hope your professional writing won't stop you from putting more articles here, I'm looking forward to being along for the next stage of your journey.<br /><br />J.Justinhttp://jaystinyhouse.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-42380764366827874702010-06-14T14:28:29.092-06:002010-06-14T14:28:29.092-06:00There are places we only dream of, and dreams that...There are places we only dream of, and dreams that take us back, and lead us on, to places in time.<br />Then there are those places we have been, where we may never return, but which we carry with us always. <br />Jill, you, unlike few people I have ever "met" are not only able to take other people to places they have never been, but also make us dream of places we may never go.<br />Thank you for sharing the reward of seeing somewhere you love through your own eyes.Jamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-19412202207908597372010-06-14T12:25:57.851-06:002010-06-14T12:25:57.851-06:00back on trackback on trackMarcLnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-55572421364531133672010-06-14T11:23:45.319-06:002010-06-14T11:23:45.319-06:00We are also getting ready to leave Juneau after 7 ...We are also getting ready to leave Juneau after 7 memory laden years.

You expressed the feelings so well. I've left some wonderful places knowing that I'll likely never see them again...the world is so large and my time here is so short that I can't see going back to the same place again. But I want to take it with me, and in a sense I do. I consciously breathe deeply and savor the sounds and smells, trying to memorize not just how it looks but how it feels. Those memories can be remarkably vivid, even years later. But I know you'll return...Stannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-17593728621253036282010-06-14T07:56:05.074-06:002010-06-14T07:56:05.074-06:00WOW. Your pictures do NOT suck.
