Today we went to the town flea/farmers market and while it was nice, it didn't have anything for me. We visited a national park visitor center, had coffee and snacks in a railroad car, and went to the Soldotna History Museum. The lady that was our guide knew the history so well, because she lived it. She came here in 1948 as a young child with her parents who were "homesteaders." This was our "cultural day."

Love that moose statue !

The buildings are the real cabins built by the first homesteaders before Alaska became the 49th state.
It has been nothing but blue skies today, so tonight we are going to take pictures of snow covered Mt. Redoubt volcano as the sun sets behind it. It last erupted March 22, 2009.

Good stuff! Keep 'em coming. Very enjoyable.

Why do those two ducks look like they are sitting on clouds in the sky?

They are sitting on the Kenai River that is rough and moving rather fast and their little feet are going 90 mph to stay in place. The problem is my photography skills.

My brother set up on Saturday night and took this picture from the road in front of the lodge.

A fully restored Buick i saw at a country fair. An early Model Ford. A beautifully restored Rod.An absolutely fantastic" Rat Rod". The work on this was just so meticulous and well done, and the sound of it starting and ticking over was just like a cat "purring", till the throttle was given full bore. Just "Magic". Hope the pics come out okay.

It's been a while.

The new dad built a wicked frame shelter which we threw the tarp over.....

Cudgee, Great cars! Thanks.

Scott, I am so impressed with the constructive activities you come up with for these kids. Nothing boring. Always something to engage and entertain them. They'll remember it for their entire lives. "Remember when........................?"
Keep up the good work my brother by another mother. If we only had more like you.

Great old cars Cudgee!
Scott, glad to see the missions have returned. I bet the boys are glad too. Looks like you had some adult participation on this one. Excellent!

cudgee those are some great cars.
Scott, It looks like fun was had by all, made me think of my scouting days.

Here is a photo of a typical " Aussie battler/bushie". Was talking to him at a tractor pull on Sunday, lovely old bloke. Doing it hard at the moment, but did not hesitate to bring his tractor in for the local event to raise money for the community. Was even bidding up to $350 for a truck load of fire wood to help raise money. People like this restore your faith in human nature.

Looks like my kinda folks. Thanks for posting.

Okay I haven't posted anything the past couple of days so here we go.

This was on our way down to Anchor Point and the end of the end of the highway overlooking the Cook Inlet.

A few sites on our way into Homer, AK.

This was lunch in a Russian mountain village, population 318. Nina served Russian borscht soup, sauerkraut, bread, tea w/cinnamon and a raspberry desert. I started looking for a Whataburger after we left!

They had just finished packing out the meat, their set for the winter.
If you go to my Facebook page there is a video of that eagle as he sat there and then flew off over the Kenai River to the other side.
