Happy Memorial Day 2015

Thank you to all of the men and women that have served for our Country! You truly are remarkable and we appreciate all that you do.

Michael and I took ole Belley Ache up Olga straight, through Salisbury Sound up to the Piper Island Forest service cabin. We left Friday night and left our beautiful sunny day in Sitka to end up in fog, choppy water and wind. Ugh..... Luckily they had replaced the mooring buoy at the cabin, so after much maneuvering and bringing down the zodiac boat Michael was able to get us securely tied up so we were able to sleep without worrying about the boat leaving without us.  lol

Did a bit of fishing and got skunked except for about 12 small Flounder that we sent back swimming. Putting around we got to see a Brown Bear. Seemed funny to us that a couple of Geese were walking right by him and he did not seem to care. Saw a small raft of Sea Otters and got to witness an Eagle swoop down on a fish that was an easy meal. Came home to enjoy the sunny day here in Sitka. We had such a nice time and as always we enjoy all of the wonderful things we get to do in this beautiful place we live.
