Our last night in Kenai we found our way back to the place we had stopped for lunch earlier in the week and spent the night. This picture was taken about 2300h
This one was taken about 2200h and has the full moon directly over the mountain peak.
Taken through the window as we drive. This area of Alaska has the highest accident rate in the state. The locals say it is the tourists looking around and the tourist say it is the locals trying to pass the tourist driving to slow.
Look at the height of those delphiniums Even though the growing season is short, the 23-24 hours of sunlight make for lots of growth. These are growing at the Murray Lowell Studio. Mr. Lowell left Iowa in the early '60's to homestead and paint Alaska. His talent is clear when you visit the studio and show room. We took pictures of his painting but do not show to well.
Mr. Lowell was there when we were and we were able to meet him and talk a bit. He is a very humble man and gives God all the credit for his talent.
HOMER SPIT. The spit runs out into the bay a couple of miles. There were hundreds of cars and RV's. About the most expensive place we have found so far. This poor boy didn't stay around too long.
