kenai peninsula: By The Light of the Moon in Anchor Point Alaska - 02/11/10 07:04 PM
By The Light of the Moon in Anchor Point Alaska
 
This was the full moon at 8:57 Am .... January 30....
 
It was just so pretty and I watched it dip behind Mt Illimani (another Volcano)
 
It almost disappears by 9:03 AM

Then just the dusk and the Snow

 Until the sunrise officially takes over...

 
I have lived her 20 years and have never got used to watching the sun and the moon here...
it is not normal... but it is beautiful...

Alaska is a beautiful place Winter, Spring Summer and Fall... Most visitors come in the Summer

kenai peninsula: FISH ON...Anchor River, Anchor Point Alaska - 10/11/09 04:29 PM
FISH ON...Anchor River, Anchor Point Alaska
The Fish must be running on the Anchor River because the fisherman are lined up on the highways  and down in the Anchor River Park... they were almost combat fishing....

And the smiles on the faces show they are catching not just fishing!
 
Steelhead and Dolly Varden are the catch of the day...
Steelhead are catch and release but the Dolly's you can keep...

Let Sleeping Moose Lay...
I noticed something in the yard this morning.... the sun wasn't quite up yet...but there was no mistaking those big Creatures curled up snoozing in the yard... It was too dark to get a picture and I didn't want to wake them up either.... Everyone needs a little rest.....

I waited patiently till the sun was finally up enough to give us a little light... the mother was stirring and she knew I was there and watching... so I took the picture thru the door so I wouldn't disturb them...
not a great picture.... But I … (7 comments)

Moose in the Yard .... Anchor Point Alaska
 
We had a visitor finally..... Moose season ends today and look who showed up! Nibbling on the willows and trees in the yard...walking right down the driveway like he didn't have a care in the world...

Whew made it thru another season... this guy is not very old... probably a year or more...
would have been a legal one... so I am glad he is still standing!

kenai peninsula: Not the Best Moose Picture but maybe one of the most memorable......... - 09/13/09 06:58 PM
Okay I was feeling bad for that moose that wasn't a moose at all ...
 Just a cute loveable creature made for decoration...
So I thought I would share this picture of a moose who was in my yard last year
Not the best picture I have ever taken but one of the most memorable....
 
It was the middle of June around 10 pm... still light out
She made her way into the yard and laid down...
then she got back up and stomped around and laid back down.
She was pregnant and ready to give birth... 
I watched her … (14 comments)

kenai peninsula: Good News! Homer Alaska rates 94 out of 100 in the Walk Score. - 09/12/09 06:31 PM
Good News! Homer Alaska rates 94 out of 100 in the Walk Score.
 
Have you ever heard of the walk score for cities? They look at many factors to decide this .... Walk score basically measures how easy it is to walk to nearby stores, restaurants, schools, parks and of course art shops and such! I put in Bay Realty's address 331 E Pioneer Ave Homer Alaska and it was 94 out of 100!  That makes us a Walkers Paradise!  
 
Check it out here.....

Of course I have to say maybe this score won't hold up in the … (6 comments)

kenai peninsula: Leave the Egos at the Door..... We are the World... - 09/05/09 07:18 PM
 

We are the world ... we are the children... Remember this event? All these extremely talented and famous people came together to create a song to help the children....The stars were told to leave their egos at the door... they created a beautiful song and raised a lot of money..... of course it was not enough... it is never enough....
 
Wouldn't it be nice if Congress could leave their egos at the door and start working together? Wouldn't that really be good for all of us in every way?
