I have never really been emotional about leaving a place, but I choked up looking at Resurrection Bay just before pulling out of Seward. We were about to leave the view, the water, the air, the people, the gelato... oh the gelato... but it was time to move on. There are more adventures ahead. Did …
Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motions of the stars, and they pass by themselves without wondering. Saint Augustine Tomorrow we will pack away the stragling items …
Much of the camping in Seward are municiple campgrounds near or at the water downtown, so we did what everyone else does when they roll in and just cruise through until we found a spot that suits. Pay the machine and you're home... Until tomorrow... when you keep an eye out for someone leaving the …
We left off from Soldatna on the 24th like planned... but a bit later than anticipated. There is this thing about fishing... it's a leisure activity that requires a TON of work. The day is not done when the fisherman gets his fish. There is processing the fish in addition to getting all the equipment …
Onward to Soldotna!! We have people to see!! Our first night was in the glamourous parking lot of a Fred Meyers (similar to Walmart, but classier). Amazing how well Sarah sleeps with the white noise of a generator in her ear. The next day was filled with oil changes, laundry and dreams of chest waders. …
We left our beach view and headed back north to Ninilchik, where we saw the boats being launched by tractors last week. We stopped by the beach again, but there were no boats going in or out. As we left, we did spy a moose! We made a few other side stops before landing at …
We can't claim to be full-time RV living people, as we will eventually go home to hot endless showers and excessive numbers of socks, and more pillows than any one person should have. Right now it seems like our daily routine will always be calling out our life numbers first thing in the AM. Nearly …
To begin our treck to Homer, we stopped at the Ninchik River Scenic Overlook. So beautiful. We almost made it to the river, but the mosquitos were intense so we went back to the safety of the RV, careful not to bring any hitch hikers along with us. On a whim, we drove down to …
We were up early and on the road by 6am Alaska time - but not before John came running over with our fish that they had frozen for us in their chest freezer! Priorities, people! We thought we were leaving the smoke behind, but we were about to drive into the thick of it as …
Well last night could have gone better - but could have been worse. The neighbors were loud and kept us up. They were not up late, but we try to get to bed by 8pm at the latest due to running on a different time zone. 3:30am came early for us, but we managed. John …
