“The end of the chase”

Alaska Mosquito as State Bird


The Alaska State Bird

Everyone knows Alaska has the largest (Mosquitoes) in the world.  Feeding on Cheechako's and other visitors unaware of their prodigious size, they have been known to carry small bears and children off to their feeding areas.  This record catch was shot attempting to carry a bus from the roadway. -

Leap Year, 1908, The Maiden's Vow


The Maiden's Vow in 1908.

Charlie shall propose tonight
I swear it by yon twinkling star,
for ages past might's been right
And all is fair in love and war.

I love how she has a rifle, a pistol and a knife, but just in case those don't work, she has a baseball bat!
