The summer season is upon us and we just had our first cruise ships in. I am working at the Alaska Raptor Center this summer and having a blast! What a nice bunch of people and the birds are beautiful. I love when the visitors come because anyone that knows me knows I love to talk to people. We have had a few days of wonderful weather which makes it that much better.
We went out on the boat and put our skate line down Sunday and got skunked. :( Put a couple of crab pots out so we will see how those do in a few days.
We have our garden in the living room up and growing. Tomatoes, jalapenos, basil and cilantro. I love this time of year! Sitka is going to be sending water to California this year. Who would have thought, but I am glad we can help.
So here are a few photos I took at my new job. I hope you enjoy them as must as I did taking them. Welcome to summer !
