I'm waiting eagerly for the next installment! Our family also has a wedding ring made from Alaska gold. It was several greats back that actually panned the gold. The ring sits in my dresser drawer waiting for the next family bride who wants to use it. Loved your story, what a thrill to have it made for you! Thanks for a great story.

Thank you so much. It makes me wonder if every inch of AK is gorgeous and every inhabitant--- with a few notable exceptions--is so eloquent. I have written the AK tourism and convention bureaus to say that I will never visit during the current state policies on wolves and polar bears, but this makes me want to re-consider. Thank you again. This is so wonderful, in the doing of it, and the telling.

I had a great trip on the Top of the World Highway (much fun in Chicken was had throwing frisbees til 4am or so) and your story brings back great memories all along the way! Your husband, so nonchalant while reliving all of his - it was always that way driving with my dad who never forgot anything if it was along a road. Then the wedding ring story...I'm still sniffling.
