2014 Calendar — Trip of a Lifetime

Our eighth annual calendar, created for 2014. This year was special, we spent seven weeks driving from Binghamton, NY through Canada into and around Alaska — then back to Canada, up to the Arctic Circle (on the Dempster Highway) and finally back through Alaska and Canada to home.

We took literally thousands of pictures and agonized over which twelve to share. We hope you like our choices.
