Probably not!

Last Sunday was pretty much a perfect winter day. It was clear. The temperature was in the low 20s. And we had tons of daylight. (OK, that part is getting better every day.)

Earlier I wrote about Sunday's hike with the dogs (Beezil and Kiley, Noah and Katelyn's young pup). Here's a look at what we did earlier Sunday afternoon, putting in a few kilometers at Kincaid Park.

About the blog: Alaska is a wonderful and fascinating place. Whether its backcountry hiking, coastline kayaking or dining on a downtown deck, there truly is something for everyone. This blog picks up where the annual Daily News Visitors' Guide leaves off. The guide is published in late April, but that's just when summer fun starts heating up. Throughout the year, we hope to give readers a look at Alaska through local eyes. The blog also serves as a calendar of what's going on, a place to look for some outstanding vacation deals and other cool stuff. We invite your comments and your questions. E-mail me at alaskology@adn.com.
About me: I live in Anchorage, Alaska's largest city, and I served as the special sections editor at the Anchorage Daily News for nine years. My wife and I have been Alaska residents since 2000 and never plan to leave.
