Damon and I are enjoying the usually warm weather we brought to Alaska from Texas. These folks up here don't know what to do with 80 degree sunny days! It has been a wonderful first week at brother Jon's house. We have had lots of camping and fishing, although sport fishing with a pole has been unsuccessful to say the least. Jon and Shannon don't usually fish with a pole. If they want fish, they throw in a net! Much more efficient. We may have a chance to try that later this week. So far the wild life count is 19 moose, 2 river otters, about 25 bald eagles, and countless sea gulls. And we can't forget the big curious bear that aroused the dog this morning at 5:00 am. The toughest aspect to get use to is the lack of true night time. It starts to look like dusk around 2:00 am and stays that way until about 6:00 am. Makes it kind of hard to sleep in a tent if you like it dark!
