June 18 Homer Alaska

After a nice dinner last nite with Diane and Dennis and their daughters family we talked till 11pm (yes still very light out). We got up early today to take the boat to Soldovia which is on the western side of the water where there are no roads. It was a quaint little town with a beautiful small Russian church and without a whole lot to do except eat and sit, my two favorite pastimes. As the boat left Homer Spit (love that name) we passed the Holland America ship Amsterdam. The last time we saw that ship was in Cadiz Spain in the middle of April. It just struck me weird that here it was in Homer Alaska.

We got back to Homer Spit at 5 pm and had a nice italian dinner at Fat Olives (a strange name for a restaurant) but really quite good. Back at the camp ground we lit an Alaska fire (more like the great Chicago fire) and talked till 10pm. Then it was off to sleepy time.
That's all folks.

  1. Hi all, your blog brings it all back. Up to now you seem to be following the route Barbara and I did in 2003. Dawson City was one of our favourites. Caught a king salmon in Montana Creek. Will keep up with your trip.
