July 18 and 19 2009






We drove to Sterling today and will stay here 5 night and go around the Kenai Pennisula.  The Red Salmon so camp openings are hard to find.  It is Saturday so folks are here from Anchorage.

We looked around the area and watched some fishermen.  They line almost every bank of the rivers.  Where the Kenai River enters the Cook Inlet there we fishermen with nets lining the banks and boat all over.  Quite a show.  I keep trying to get Conrad to go, but he isn't sure he wants to fish.  We went for a 3 mile hike today in a Wildlife Reserve, but saw more flora than fawna. Heard loons again, wonderful sound.  We drove out to Cook State Rec Area and saw canoers.  Alaska seem to have many canoe trail.  Go from one lake to another.  One couple had a min pin with a life jacket on.  Cute.

The very old town of Kenai has 2 old Russian churches and a couple old cabins left.

Tomorrow to Homer and the Spit.  Taking the car so I guess Otto wil go so not sure about going to Halibut Cove on Ferry.  Takes too long.
