| Heading south |
 |
| Kenai River: This place will look completely
different when the salmon start running. |
 |
| Known for combat fishing in the salmon
season |
 |
| Looking for wildlife... |
 |
| Found a sign... |
 |
| AND a moose cow! |
 |
| Homesteading house in Soldotna |
 |
| Dentistry on a raft, maybe that's my
niche! |
 |
| Kenai: Oldest Russian Orthodox Church
on mainland Alaska |
 |
| Oil rigs off the coast in Nikiski |
 |
| Rock of rocks in Captain Cook State
Park! |
 |
| "Welcome to the Heart of Recreation" |
 |
| Town of Ninilchik: Notice the RVs in
the background. Folks are getting ready for razor clam digging. |
 |
| What's he up to? |
 |
| Watching the eagles. |
 |
| Russian Orthodox Church still in use
in Ninilchik |
 |
| Western most driveable point in North
America |
 |
| We made it to Homer. |
 |
| A view of The Spit, which became significantly
smaller after the 1964 Earthquake. |
 |
| An early morning start to a day of fishing |
 |
| Headed out to find some hungry halibut |
 |
| This was my second catch; my limit for
the day |
 |
| Does this photo remind you of "The
Fishing Channel?" |
 |
| What a day! |
 |
| Toby fileting today's catch |
 |
| 40 lbs.: vaccuum-packed and ready for
travel |
 |
| Mmmmmmmm good! |
 |
| Some people take ATVs out on the flats
to dig for clams. The view across Cook Inlet from Ninilchik takes in an
active volcano range. On a clear day, Mt. Augustine is seen to the far left,
with Mt. Iliamna, Mt. Redoubt, and Mt. Spur to the right. |
 |
| This doesn't even begin to show how
muddy we were after clamming! |
 |
| If you look closely you can see the
razor clam's necks exiting these shells(except for the ones Robert cut off
with the shovel)! |
 |
| The clam in my right hand (to your left)
is called a "Redneck." We felt right at home. |
