Trip to Homer


Over the weekend, we were joined by Tracy and Jeff for a 225 mile trip down much of the Kenai Penninsula to Homer.  Most of the trip is via a two-lane road that winds its way through beautiful vistas of mountains, lakes, streams, rivers and bays.  Along the way, we stopped about 50 miles short of our destination to spend a night at a state recreation area where we sat right on the water's edge and observed a number of Golden and Bald Eagles as well as an amazing sunset.

While on the Homer Spit, Deb and Jeff spent an afternoon out on a boat fishing for Halibut, while Tracy and I took a 5- mile walk exploring the spit.  The fishing experience was a bit less than hoped for, but we did know to expect something less than on the trip Deb took with Tracy and Jeff about 10 years ago.  They did catch their limit and we have some good eating on the horizon.
