Back In Alaska





On December 17th we walked outside the municipal airport in Kenai and up the stairs of the 19 passenger plain we were flying on from Kenai to Anchorage. The flight was all of 20 minutes. Then we boarded our 6 hour flight back home to Minnesota where we spent almost 2 full weeks visiting and relaxing with our families. We spent time in Minnetonka, Duluth, Cokato and Hinckley. Some of the activities we took in while home were: Holidazzle, Bentlyville light display in Duluth, The Three Musketeers play, snow football, snowmobiling, Christmas Snowstorm, Edgewater Water Park in Duluth, walking the dogs, ice skating, sledding, quinzhee building and card/board games.
When we got home about half the snow pack had disappeared due to mid 30s weather while we were away. Saturday, the 2nd of January, we went for a hike along the Kenai River. Again, the color of the water was breathtaking, and the sunset views from the cliffs above the river made for some beautiful pictures. We also came across a lot of moose tracks, which is not uncommon, but that day we saw the biggest tracks we have seen since moving up here.

Until Next Time,

Rochelle and Jonathan
