Moose at Speaking Event in Anchorage
A Mother Moose and her Calf frolic past the door of the ATOM Center in Anchorage, Alaska
I have been trying to get a photograph of a moose since my honeymoon 15 years ago. We went to Newfoundland where it was cool in July compared to the steamy summer weather in the South.
The whole time we were in Newfoundland, I drove with the camera on my knee hoping to get a great nature photograph of a moose.
On the highway, we saw one far in the distance munching on water plants in a swamp. However, we sped by it in the car too quickly to take a photo.
As a result, we decided to ply the many secondary by-ways, and even ventured on a few gravel roads, always searching for that elusive moose.
Now, 15 years later, this mother moose and her youngster appeared at my doorstep 15 minutes before my speaking event, “Everyone Has a Book in Them,” a two-day workshop program in the ATOM Center in Anchorage, Alaska. The Alaskans, who had arrived for the program early, thought that likely the mother and her baby were on their way to a nearby lake. It seems that moose events are rather common in Anchorage.
The ATOM Center is in town at 4025 Raspberry Road, kiddie-corner and behind the Tastee Freeze. And here they were – mama and baby! Definitely an auspicious event just as the program was about to begin!
At it turned out, it was a wonderful weekend where I met creative, energetic people who are excited about getting their ideas out of their heads and onto the pages of a book.

I am happy to say that I am back online again. The company that hosts my web sites was changing servers so my blog was unavailable for a while.
Also, I have been very busy here in Alaska and so have not been able to send my emails. I have been giving the “Everyone Has A Book in Them” program at the ATOM Center and enjoying visiting with the many wonderful people I have met in Anchorage before and met anew during my current visit. Plus, I had the opportunity to visit the Kenai peninsula to take photographs.
It has been a wonderful visit. There is so much to report, from having a mother moose and her calf turn up outside the front door of the ATOM Center the morning of the “Everyone Has A Book in Them” Event – my Alaska friends think the mama and her baby were on the way to the nearby lake (I should have a photo to show you when I get home) – to the flying bald eagle I photographed in Homer, AK, one of the most beautiful places on earth, to the wonderful experience of being with people who are glowing with creativity and talent.
Today, I have 3 private sessions and then I graciously receive a ride to the airport. I know I will be back.

I’m in Los Angeles for a couple of days. While here, I am fine-tuning my presentation for the “Everyone Has a Book in Them” weekend program on August 14, 15, & 16 in Anchorage, Alaska, at the ATOM Center, on 4025 Raspberry Rd.
I’m excited by this topic because the Edgar Cayce readings say that creative expression is as much an expression of the Creative Forces as is the psychic. He also says that if you don’t use your creative talents, you lose them. Therefore, this is a program near and dear to my heart and soul.
