After visiting Alaska in the winter of 2018, I often wondered what it would be like during the summer. Eight years later, in the summer of 2026, I finally had the opportunity to return.
One of the highlights of the trip was visiting Independence Mine. Walking through the old buildings and learning about its history was fascinating, and the mountain views were absolutely breathtaking. We also visited Reflection Lake, where the water reflected the mountains so perfectly that it looked like a painting.
While we were in Palmer, we stopped by the Friday Fling. It was fun walking through the booths, seeing local vendors.
It was interesting to experience Alaska in two completely different seasons.
My first visit showed me the beauty of a snowy Alaskan winter, while my second visit revealed its green landscapes, rushing rivers, and long summer days.
Both trips were unforgettable, each offering a unique perspective on one of God's most beautiful creations.
Looking back, I'm thankful that I had the opportunity to experience Alaska in both winter and summer. Each trip gave me memories I'll always treasure, and both reminded me of God's incredible power, creativity, and the beauty of His creation.
Most of all, I'm thankful for the time I was able to spend with my family.
It was a gift from God that I will always cherish. If I ever have the chance to return again, I know there will still be more to discover.
