Somewhere around First or Second grade, I had a friend who had lived in Anchorage. He made it clear it wasn&#8217;t constantly covered in ice and snow. He painted quite a wonderful picture. From that day on, I was always wanting to visit that distant land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I was beginning my college career, there was talk of hopping in a car and driving north. I even got some friendly advice from a few people about preparing to cross into Canada. It sounded like such an adventure. For me, it was a sort of rebellion. To that point, my world travels were limited to five or six states. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t until the twenty-first century that this childhood dream finally came true. It coincided perfectly with that dream of finding true love. A few years later, I would return with my son, taking him as far north as I had traveled myself. He was too young to recall just how majestic the landscape is, so I am sure we will return before too long.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"metaslider-id-1621\" style=\"max-width: 500px;\" class=\"ml-slider-3-99-0 metaslider metaslider-flex metaslider-1621 ml-slider ms-theme-simply-dark has-dots-nav\" role=\"region\" aria-label=\"Alaska 2012\" data-width=\"500\">\n    <div id=\"metaslider_container_1621\">\n        <div id=\"metaslider_1621\">\n            <ul class='slides'>\n                <li style=\"display: block;

Therein lies much of the siren song. In the small fragment of that enormous landscape, I have failed to find something new to photograph. The terrain is captivating as is the native artwork. To watch the harbor seals play and a grizzly bear fish for salmon is to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I often reassure my coworkers that, yes, I have been keeping one eye out for work in the great wide north. It is a certainty that they underestimate just how quickly I would fly away given the chance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where is your paradise?
