I will just post these photos as I just want it done right now. first three are looking across Cook Inlet, a Ptarmigan, Georgine Lake (the far end) and the last photo is brother Lar when we were walking Dan and my land on Georgine Lake.

Landed in Nikiski finally

long long flight to get to Nikiski.... what a trip! 11 hours of planes and airports! So strange to see the time at 10:25 p.m. but it was really 2:25 a.m. my time and my bodies time. Only could sleep 3 hours as my body just could not unwind. Woke to bright sunshine day, the lake was gorgeous! My sister-in-law and I went out for a kayak paddle. Spooked a pair of Loons from their nest so we steered clear of them and headed for the far end of the lake. Beached on a tiny rocky area and walked a well worn wide animal trail to another small lake in the woods. So beautiful and quiet.
The next day we headed out to visit friends of Lar & Tam's. Great people! There was another couple there who were fabulously funny and so interesting. She spent years living in the bush across the bay. So we heard story of their recent trip to the cabin for a visit and some of her years living there.
I promised to post pictures so here are some.

Alright I cannot figure out how to download and publish the pictures in order like I want as I am too tired right now...will work at it tomorrow but here are a few for you to look at!
