Another Weekend

The day dawned cloudy & dark; at 7 a.m. it was as gloomy as last night at 11. Since the sun had been up for 90 minutes at that hour, it didn't bode well for our outing. Now at 11 a.m., the clouds are showing thin spots, and small patches of blue show up on occasion. Sad to say that that's an improvement, but 'tis so.

This afternoon, we'll depart for Seward, about 120 miles to the south, along the east coast of the Kenai Peninsula. At 5 p.m., our smallish cruise ship sets out for Fox Island, where we'll be wined & dined before making the return trip.

The drive is along the Turnagain Arm and through the Kenai Mountains down to Seward & Resurrection Bay. Beautiful scenery the entire way; it's tough to take, boys & girls, but we suffer it so you don't have to.

I've published pics of all these places before, but will put up anything that catches my eye, this time 'round.

Y'all stay as cool as you can; it's still only 53 degrees here, and is predicted to go no higher than 59 today.

Rev. Paul,

Today we had temps at 105, with heat index running to 114. That's Farenheit, by the way. Same predicted tomorrow. Oh well, it's the height of summer, what can one expect?

Best Wishes,
