Happy Birthday Sis




Today is my little sister's 62nd birthday and in one month, she will be collecting Social Security. How nice is that !!! This picture of her was taken in 1952, in Whitehorse, Canada. We were on one of our merry little drives to Alaska and always loved stopping at Whitehorse. The cemetary was one of the things that fascinated us because of the way natives buried their dead, plus the old sternwheelers that were hauled out of the Yukon River onto shore for the winter. Mom took this picture of the Aksala in 1952. I think the Klondike is the only one that has survived because most were destroyed by fire. This site has oodles of great pictures.
