February 21, 2015: Clam digging Juneau Alaska Style...

February 21, 2015: 

Morning clam digging with family in
Juneau, Alaska.

(I can't believe I forgot my big camera, 
although my iPhone stepped-up-to-the-plate rather nicely today)...

This heavy fog during the drive to the harbor
had us a bit worried about the upcoming boat ride...

Yes, the fog was incredibly dense...


Thank God the fog began to lift soon after our arrival...

Loading Sis Nadine and the pup into the dingy...

We made it to shore...

Husband Max was the first to start digging...

Low-flying geese in front of brother Alan's boat...

Brother Steve, Amberly and Abby the other pup arriving onshore...

And, a river runs through it...


Sis Nadine found her 'honey hole'...

We all were lucky clam digging,
but I'm also super stoked with these 3 ginormous cockles...





Ewe...

Brother Alan's boat on the left with Steve's in the center,
as viewed from the dingy we're in...

Nearing the harbor after our fantastic outing...










A successful and fun-filled clam digging adventure,
that's for sure...








October 2014: Incredible Hometown of Yakutat, Alaska...

October 18-30, 2014

Capturing some of the majestic beauty only found in Yakutat, Alaska.

It's simply never ending...

from our Yakutat home...

View from one side of the bridge
heading to Cannon Beach...

View from the other side of the bridge...

The phenomenal beauty and ambiance of
Cannon Beach never lets us down...









At the head of the lake along the shoreline
(viewed from our back deck)
these bald eagles fighting over lunch consisting of an unlucky green-head mallard...

Main purpose of this trip was to
work on making our newly purchased home-away-from-home homier
(the AFTER photograph of our beginning efforts)...

July 29, 2012: Fun Day Trout Fishing in Juneau, Alaska...

July 29, 2012: 

Fun Day Trout Fishing 
in the northern area of Juneau, Alaska...

Lil' Miss Chelsey
(our 4-year-old, 10-lb. maltepoo)
experiencing her first skiff ride heading out
trout fishing with us...
A view from the shoreline where we anchored our skiff ~
you can see the Chilkat Mountain Range in the distance...



Lil' Miss Chelsey
seeking out shoreline critters...
What a serene and beautiful sight to behold
after our 1/4-mile hike up the mountain...

Max in his glory trout fishing
with Chelsey keeping a close eye
on the bobber...

Yay!  A small trout,
although beautiful nonetheless...


Lil' Miss Chelsey
watching Max come back
from trying his luck fishing from the point...

(she hiked part ways up the mountain, 
and ALL the way down ~ What a trooper she was!)
Yay again!  He was lucky,
you can see him very gently carrying his small trout
in his left hand with his fishing pole in his right...

The trout were rather scarce,
but what a fun outing we have had...

Tree reflection
along the edge of the crystal clear lake...
A huge abundance of wild Blueberry
bushes are everywhere
in this location...
All aboard and heading
to Boy Scout Beach
to roast some brats
over a campfire for dinner...




A great way to end the day 
after eating our roasted brats
