In Homer
Got to the end of the road and beyond yesterday. No new photos but will use some stock shots of Homer. I seem to take the same pictures every time I visit anyway.
The old homestead in Soldotna. Looks like the new owners have added a few satellite dishes.
Ohlson Mountain Road by Bill & Shellie’s.
The obligatory spit/rainbow shot.
The view from their deck.
The lone eagle shot
Low tide on the exposed side (west) of the spit.
But the drive down here from Anchorage is still one of the most scenic in the state.
This is from the Summit Lake Lodge.
Bill and I got 40 pounds of halibut fillets so the harvest is on.
Weather is perfect!
So far I've reached acceptable proficiency at the following, in chronological order: Silversmith, infantryman/door gunner, helicopter pilot, fireman, carpenter, residential contractor, FAA Air Traffic Control Specialist and crotchety old retired guy. Currently, I'm learning to fly again and that is what this is all about. 7/7/2020 edit: As I have had the opportunity to reflect (old people do that a lot) on my actual proficiency level at the above occupations, I feel adjustments are in order. The term "acceptable" depends on the observer, their own proficiency and experience level. Acceptable to me might be woefully deficient to the master. I think it would be more accurate to claim that I have earned a living wage at all of these occupations but never got rich. Actually, I feel that I have gotten rich at the last one. I have what I need and am profoundly grateful for all of it. The future looks bright indeed, as I have learned to fly again. For that I have all of you to thank. Thank You!
Great Pics!
Awesome pics! Wish I could have been there.
