half way through

there is a great wildlife rescue in seward that we went to yesterday. there were really neat fish and otters, seals and whatnot the weather was fantastic and there was a beautiful view…we were hoping to see some killer whales but we were not far enough out.

after lunch we worked our way down to a glacier in kenai. at first i didnt think it was much at first…just looked like snow on a mountain. i was thinking it was going to be this amazing out in the water floating thing. but as we got closer and found out we could hike to it…i changed my mind! wow it was amazing! unbelievable. the park ranger says that it shrinks back 360 feet a year because of global warming. londy got her junior ranger badge and thought it was so neat! we spent way too much time trying to find a decent camp ground but did find our first mcdonalds and made londy so happy that we had to stop for dinner. not anyone elses choice but how can you deny that cute little girl! we camped on a huge, fast flowing river and everyone went down to fish once we got londy in bed. meggie and i stayed with her and hung out by the campfire. we acted like goobers and took several pictures using the tripod and timer…lol

dude! I'm so jealous!!! My brother in law's family owns a house not far from Keni. the backyard IS the keni river. Ed and I went two summers ago and fell in love. We fished salmon in the back yard. Now, someday, Ed is determined to own a house there in the same area. So when we do, you can come hang out in the summer.
