Mid-July 2012:
My husband Max and I spent
the afternoon "out the road" in Juneau, Alaska
to check out the scenery,
and to watch the Commercial Gillnet Fleet in action...

| Cohen Island at the mouth of Tee Harbor... |
| Aaron Island, with Shelter Island in the background and the Chilkat Mountain Range on the Chilkat Peninsula... |
