Gorgeous skies and sunshine – a rare Friday off work – for both myself and oldest daughter. Road trip was in store for the day – we got her youngest onto the school bus and hubby moose into bed after his long night of work – and off we went.

Lessa has no problem with me stopping frequently to take random pictures. She usually has her camera at ready, too. In fact, she got a couple of shots I didn’t. But neither of us got pictures of the several moose we saw.

Homer is hosting their annual Shorebird Festival so there were a lot of folks out on the mud flats with scoping glasses and binoculars – birding books for identification and mud boots, of course.

We wandered out to the end of East End Road – well, we went to the end of the pavement near Voznesenka. I guess I hadn’t realized how close those fires came to homes up there last year. We saw lots of damage to the wooded land thereabouts.





And . . . while lessa and I knew that we could get garages at Garage Sales – and yards at Yard Sales . . . who knew you could get:

. . . just follow the signs . . .

More pics tomorrow.
