Information on Flight Seeing and the Alaska Railroad

The following website has information of one such opportunity to flight see while in Alaska. Since a couple of you have discussed this on the blog comments, I thought I'd mention it!

Perhaps Monday afternoon after our sessions--- could be a time to drive to Talkeetna and take a flight should someone be interested. We've planned to go to Talkeetna on Tuesday evening for the group dinner--- but perhaps that date might work for you as well.

There are many opportunities such as this, but thought you'd like some information should this be one of your conference goals.

For information on Train trips, one website of interest may be:

When you arrive at the conference, we will provide you with information about what you can see or do after hours... Be thinking about what you'd like to do during that time. Send me an email or post comments so that we are able to provide information for you in your interest areas. We will have information about other kennels you can visit, by the way--- and the 'usual' places of interest.
