Rika's Roadhouse

This past weekend officially brought fall with it. Saturday was cold and rainy, so hubby and I decided to get out of town for the day. We took a drive to Delta Junction, Alaska.  We found the sun for a while and picked up a 4-wheeler part we needed.  We also made a little discovery... Rika's Roadhouse. I'm not completely sure how we had never heard of this place, but it made for a nice little adventure.

The flowers were amazing.  I think sweet peas are my new favorites.

Photo Challenge: Woops!


Photobucket

The challenge for the week over at Mama and the Dudes is WOOPS! Everyone has those accidental shots stored away somewhere and now is the chance to use them for something.

This is actually one of my all time favorite photos.  I was outside goofing around with the dogs and just snapping away.  Tucker got in the way of one of my shots and this is how it turned out:~)

Here are a few more....

I didn't realize until after I took this picture that my camera was
focusing on the fence and not the chickens.  Thankfully I did realize
what was happening and corrected it, but I do kinda like the way this
one turned out.

This is another whale photo.  Well I guess its more of an after the
whale photo.  On another trip with my family we got to see humpbacks in
Valdez, AK. I wasn't quick enough with the camera and only managed to
catch the effect of the tail splash.
