Uncle Leroy's Coffee ("Into the Wild" Version) - Talkeetna, Alaska

Even when you are up in Alaska on a wildfire, coffee is important.

 

Enter Uncle Leroy's. I was so happy to find them hanging out in Talkeetna for the summer, dishing out a stellar cup of "pour over only" coffee from inside an old school bus. According to the owners, theirs is the second most photographed bus in Alaska (think, "Into the Wild", Jon Krakauer's excellent book about Christopher McCandless AKA Alexander Supertramp).

For a while now, I've been contributing photos to Google Maps.

 

It's a nice diversion from Charger only photos and a fun outlet for creativity. Although I haven't made it a priority to include my Charger in the photos, somehow the car has found its way into a few of my Spokane photos (imagine that).

 

A number of my photos have had over half a million views each which is pretty neat. It depends greatly on the location or business you add the photo to and also who's searching Google. I can't control it so I just enjoy it when one goes crazy. So, in no particular order, here are some of the photos I've uploaded to Google Maps over the last two years.

 

Taken with my cell phone.
