July 10th. Talkeetna

We are still in Talkeetna.  We went out for breakfast to the Flying squirrel restaurant this morning. 

Then stopped at the Museum and went through that.   

The Alaska railroad runs a flag stop train between Talkeetna and Hurricane.  It's a distance of 115 miles.  It is used by people who live in the bush as well as hunters, hikers and fisherman. The train stops for anyone wanting to be picked up for a ride into town or dropped off in the wilderness.  They said it can be late, depending how many stops it makes. 

We are leaving here in the morning, going to Anchorage.

This is a old Wards snowmobile that was at the museum

The Alaska train that goes from Talkeetna to Hurricane 

We walked to this bridge hoping to see Denali (or Mt McKinnely)  is suppose to be a good place to view the Mountain, but the clouds were hiding it again today,

I'm not sure what this plant is, but the leaves are huge. Some are almost a foot across.
