Tales of Teller, Alaska. My husband and I decided to take a risk, pack it up and here we are, the village of TELLER... in ALASKA... in the Bush...on a Spit. Population 350 or so. Surrounded by the Bering Sea, Bering Straits. Port Clarence Bay and Grantley Harbor, We are here and are completely in awe of every aspect of natural beauty, new friends, new life, new traditions, new food, new cultures and a lot of learning about myself. ***I ENCOURAGE YOU TO PLEASE COMMENT OR ASK QUESTIONS***

RON !! NOME !! BREAKFAST !!
They say here in these parts that only about 4 men got rich out of the hundreds of thousands miners.
Yeah! NOME! Ron & Miss Jan with the Van picked me up, She took us to a good old fashioned heart stopping cafe and I ate biscuits and gravy and DIET COKE!! Woo Hoo, the best breakfast I ever had. Miss Jan was kind enough to bring Ron to Nome and pick me up. And they were kind enough to include a sweatshirt because I was wearing a short sleeved t shirt, thin knit pants and loafers, no socks. Not a smart Alaska fashion choice.
Then we piled in the famous Jan Van and began our tour.
Nome is different than I had pictured it in my head, So most of you must know that I am camera happy and took several hundred pictures. Here are some of Nome itself, then the journey. The most beautiful journey. My thanks to Miss Jan. The most patient person I have met. She let me take my time taking pictures, and let me tell you, that was patience.
