Day 66








No moose stories today. In fact no wild life to speak of, just some wild scenery.

I decided to wander down to Homer, the town right on the end of the Kenai Peninsula, and luckily, the clouds were quite high, the sun was doing its best to sun, and the view of the mountains all around Kachemak Bay were spectacular.

I saw a couple of amusing names.

One was on a big boat, it was called “The Other Line”

One was on a tow truck, it was “Happy Valley Hookers”

If you buy a piece of property up here, and have a road or driveway built for access, you get to name it whatever you like.

Occasional feature # 321.

If The Captain and Marlipops built a road, what would they call it?

Answers please, but keep it clean, this is a family show!

After I left Homer I took a side road, along the southern edge of Kenai, which meandered for over 20 miles, was very up and down and wiggly wiggly, but had breathtaking views over the bay, and I even saw 2 glaciers wot I didn’t know existed down here.

In the evening I did my usual late trip down Oil Well Road, to see if I could see some mooses, but three times in a row was asking too much.

On the way back, on the main road, was a horse, trotting along in the middle of my lane, so I followed him for about 5 minutes before he disappeared into an opening in the bushes on the side of the road, there to get eaten by bears, or mooses or something, supposebly.

So, an uneventful day, but some good pix.

One day to MPR.
