This is the view from out front of the Chemistry Building. It is actually a place tour buses come to show off the view. The peaks in the distance are the Alaska Range. Denali is way off to the right, and wasn't visible at the time.
My front yard.
A little pond in the Goldstream Valley.
Goldstream Valley Road. I assume this is why they call it the Goldstream Valley. Those hills won't be yellow for long...
Trees in the tundra grow to stunted sizes from lack of sunlight and exposure to sub-zero temps for so long.
This is the Natural Sciences building (it houses Chemistry, Physics, and Geology). I teach my chemistry labs in here and take a class. 
This is IARC: the International Arctic Research Center. This is where my research lab is housed and where I have a desk. That satellite dish is about 3 stories tall. The big ball on the left is the radar for the National Weather Service, who has their office here, as well.
IARC at dusk.Winter is looming! I think the entire town is tip-toeing around the fact that the first snow may be in 1-2 weeks.
