Building The Alaskan Highway - Mega Structure.

The Alaska Highway (also known as the Alaskan Highway, Alaska-Canadian Highway, or ALCAN Highway) was constructed during World War II for the purpose of connecting the contiguous United States to Alaska through Canada. It begins at the junction with several Canadian highways in Dawson Creek, British Columbia, and runs to Delta Junction, Alaska, via Whitehorse, Yukon. Completed in 1942 at a length of approximately 2,700 kilometres (1,700 mi), as of 2012 it is 2,232 km (1,387 mi) long. The difference in distance is due to constant reconstruction of the highway, which has rerouted and straightened out numerous sections. The highway was opened to the public in 1948. Legendary over many decades for being a rough, challenging drive, the highway is now paved over its entire length.

Jerfe Dittmann

Born in Manila, Philippines as the 5th of 6 children. My mom, a physician and my dad, a businessman encouaraged me to play the piano along with my siblings. I started to play the piano by ear at age 9. My mom, who often said that "no one could ever take away from you your piano playing skills", bought the piano for the family when I turned 11-years old. I then started to be taught by classical piano teachers ever since. I have been playing the piano on and off for 40 years and has played for my family, relatives, friends and special occasions through the years. I also played recitals at young age.

My biggest accomplishment is the 2015 debut for CD entitled " All Of Me (Volume 1). The album is a 15-song collection of mostly my favorite movie soundtracks. More than half of the CD sales I earned so far has been donated to the sponsorship of an impoverished child through World Vision and aid to few of my struggling former classmates in the Philippines.

My husband, William Dittmann of 11 years, has been proudly supportive of me and often encourage me to keep playing consistently. I am now back to work with my long-time classical piano teacher, Holly Ohoro, who graduated from Julliard School of Music. With a love for Christ Jesus and a vision to help as many poor people all over the world, I am inspired to work on my sophomore CD, slated to hit the market later this year.

I express my feelings through my music. It is a gift that should be shared around the world. I found happiness in my music because it is a talent that heals the soul of many. As an artist, I am so driven to create more,in order to help my charities, The World Vision and Disabled American Veterans. I believe that to dream is to make it come true. So my courage and perseverance of making my first CD did come true. I believe in myself and nothing will stop me from moving forward because my good intention will help more people and thats my next step whether I make it big or not. My accomplishment is so much rewarding to myself and to many.
