From the Kenai

We are down in Texas now, and reviewing our pics after our shortened "Retirement Vacation".

So, if you have nothing to do, take a look at some of our upcoming blogs of our 5,000 mile trip to our "new" home.
We hope to post a few pictures of each phase along the way, within the next week or so.

Maybe you'll enjoy it enough to get you a rental motorhome in Anchorage and explore the real AK!

First, may we recommend you take the ferry from Homer, on the Kenai peninsula and cross to Kodiak island. Sure it's 9 - 12 hours, but you you'll see lots of sea life, enjoy the "Emerald Isle" and definitely not regret it.

Check out our prior blogs here or those about Kodiak at

(PS be sure to get housing reservation in Kodiak pre-arranged, because housing can be hard to find in the Summer time).

On the way back you'll see glaciers under the bright 9 PM sun, as you land on the Homer Spit.

Watch the tourist on the beach, envying your ocean trip.

And reflections form the 10 PM sun

Is that that the  Redoubt volcano that caused so much fear for air travelers just a few years ago?

On the peninsula we saw 9 moose on this trip, including the babes we\'e shown before,

and some large lakes

by which you can pose a a regular tourist

and on which you can literally "reflect upon"

So, let's just make a decaf espresso, camp out overnight, watch the birds nesting near-by,

and just enjoy the view.
