Two friends went with me. I met one in Seattle, the other flew in a day later from Boston. 3 older ladies alone in Alaska, painting the place red. :) We had a grand time and lived through an epic wind storm while we were in Homer. There were wind warnings out for 90 to 120 mph wind gusts and boy did she blow. We were staying in a beach house, right on the edge of the ocean. No more than 50 feet away from us huge waves were crashing all night long. In the morning it was still blowing but not quite as bad. Needless to say, we couldn't do much that day besides sit in Two Sisters sipping coffee and having a sweet and go shopping. Shopping in Homer is fun, but it's a small artsy fishing village and many places close up for the winter months so it didn't take long and we were done. We spent more time at Two Sisters until it was time to figure out what to do for dinner.
All In A Day, well, I could write a story about each day away. 2 days of flying, 2 days of driving hundreds of miles, 2 days of a bead show, 1 day of great hiking, days of rain, take your pick. I'll just post some random photo's from a day in my trip and apologize again for missing a few weeks.
I'm pretty sure I need to go back for the bachelor auction, who wants to go with me?
I am so glad you got to go to Alaska. I can tell reading your posts that you love it there. Your photos are awesome. Thanx for sharing them with us. The mountains reflected in the lake is perfect for the light and shadows post too.
ReplyDeleteThe pics are great, and so fun to get a look at Alaska through your eyes. I love that mermaid sitting up on her post!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip home! Can feel the joy you had through your photos. P.S. I would join you for the Bachelor Auction, but only if they take trade-ins ;o)
