Mid-Morning

What's sad about this is how excited I am...

Flowers in the Rain

Late Evening

I took this picture last night, about ten-thirty or eleven, looking south out of the bedroom. The same little hill that blocks the rising sun in December reflects the light of the setting sun in summer.

Looking north just before midnight.

View From the Bluff

We were up early this morning as Denny had to go back to work. I drove him in to the airport for the seven-thirty flight to Anchorage.

I stopped at the top of the bluff on the way back home and took this photo of Cook Inlet, looking south toward the Gulf of Alaska.

On The Road To Kenai

We drove up to Kenai on a supply run this afternoon. It was the first trip we have made since green-up. The fresh leaves of the birch and alders were vivid against the dark green of the spruce trees.



Of course, the other sign of Spring in Alaska is road construction and repair.



We had a nice wait on K-Beach Road on the way into Kenai.

We took the Spur Highway back...
