More AMH photos

One stop along the way is Sitka. The town is about 7 miles away, so we walked down to the beach and turn rocks over and look for sea life. It is abundant! You could catch thousands of crabs, star fish and other things. We all had a great time. This is a very small star fish Justice is holding.
The m/v Columbia docked in Sitka.

Our schedule. I wish I'd taken the picture in Haines.

Haines Alaska

We started our time on the ferry in Haines. It was beautiful. It reminds me of Seward, but much smaller. No where in town will you here the words, "Welcome to McDonalds, may I take your order?" That's good and bad, nothing is cheap. Loaf of bread was $4.95, milk was $5.69 gal. Eggs were almost $6 a dozen. You can see the town in the back ground.
We tried to get down to the water to check the tide pools for wild life. Not much was found.
Great photo. What can be said?
The kids with the m/v Columbia approaching port to pick us up.
There were two elevators in the belly of the beast. We rode up just after this one went up. We were all pretty amazed.

Matanuska Glacier


We had to stop for a picture here and lunch. I think Cathy and I stopped here the first time we drove out of Alaska in 1991.

Motel6? No, Edlin6!

Sleeping has been rough lately. But we'll make it. The movers came and took it all.

Colt's Bald Eagle Report

Colt had to do a report on an Alaskan animal. He chose the bald eagle. Part of his assignment was to do a diorama. This was his handy work with mama's oversight.

Man, It's Gonna Hurt to Leave

This may very well be the last hare hunt for me in Alaska. It couldn't have ended on a prettier day. Five of us went, totaled 13.
