Area photos were popular, as always, on Twitter over the past week. You can still cast your vote in our first quarter 2010 photo contest, which has been our most popular link. There is also an interesting video showing the toppling of Alaska’s tallest structure from several days ago. Otherwise…it’s great photo after great photo from Fairbanks, North Pole, Denali and other places around Interior Alaska.
