South of Anchor
age, it’s time to go “Bearfooting’: a verb that means having a good time on the road. Bit’s also a state of mind -- ‘when your journey becomes more important than your destination’. You’ll know it when you find yourself waking up in the morning and can’t remember the day of the week, where you are, and what your next stop is=what’s more, you don’t even care! Remember it’s the journey, not only the destination!Homer to Ninilchik: Two days in Homer and time to move northward. Nice small villages, plenty of beautiful sights. Stopped along road to see the back end of moose running into plains area. Stayed overnight in Ninilchik State Park campground, overlooking Cook Inlet and when clouds cooperated we had view of Redoubt Volcano out our back window. The small village of Ninilchik hosted small fishing harbor, a collection of cute little homes and on top an adorable Russian church.
T got some fishing in with the local enthusiasts, a lot of hits all around but no one took anything home for dinner, always a chinese Sunday supper works at local ‘Wok’. So interesting to sit around and listen to the locas, out picking blueberries today and hoping the ?strawberries will ripen this week. A sweetheart of a child with her braids and grandfather discussing their blueberry harvest and her enthusiasm for hanging out with him charming!
Heading to McD’s to get our morning Java and E-mail! Chow!
