The Long Lost Update

Hello all, and sorry for such a lapse in updates!

We got our furniture last week, and we've been busy unpacking. I think I forgot how much stuff we have. It looks like we're going to have a garage sale to get rid of some things. I already sold our old washer and dryer on craig's list since our house came with a washer and dryer. So ... most of our spare time has been spent unpacking boxes and deciding what stuff to keep. I know, what a waste of an Alaska summer, but, it's about time we feel like we have a home again!

We have made it out a bit ... for our 5th anniversary (August 5), we went out on a trip to Fox Island for kayaking. We took a trip with Kenai Fjord Tours ...

12 PM - boat departs for Fox Island
1 PM - arrive at Fox Island for a salmon bake lunch
2 PM - gear up for kayaking and instruction
3 PM - depart on the kayaks - tour the Fox Island spit
6 PM - arrive back at the lodge for a bit more salmon
7 PM - depart the island for a wildlife tour
9:30 PM - arrive back in Seward

On the kayak tour, we saw puffins, common murre, a blad eagle, and even a sea otter! On the wildlife tour, we saw sea otters, seals, porpoises, and lots and lots of birds. What a great time!

I've put some pictures of both the tour (it was a bit rainy), and all of the blooming flowers near our house.

I'll try to keep you more up to date with our adventures. My in-laws are in town for a while, so we'll be doing some exploring of Denali, Homer, and other places too. Take care ... and until next time ...
