Clamming!

Here's the crew!
Sarah going after the kill!
John and Donny surveying the land
The happy clammer
Our catch
It's hard to see, but there were about 23 bald eagles perched on this cliff waiting for the fish guts to be dropped off by fishermen (hint: look for any speck of white).
Beautiful Mt. Redoubt

Memorial Day Weekend

On Memorial Day Weekend, we went to our neighbor, Mike's cabin. And for those of you who have heard of him, yes this is famous Mike. The one who plows our drive-way in the winter, the one who brings us loads of dirt for the backyard and then actually takes the time to transport the dirt to the backyard when John was gone, the one who will really do anything for you! Yes, it's that Mike!
Here we are taking the boat out to his cabin which is on an island in the middle of a pretty big lake! And that's Mike with the yellow rain hat on, he's quite a character!
Coming to shore...
Relaxing in the hammock
Enjoying a lovely BBQ with the other "islanders!" That's Mike sitting next to me.
And of course, beautiful Alaska!

after much silence...

I have dedicated these next few days to getting caught up on the blogging.

So here is a picture of my class on the one of the last days of school. I think it turned out pretty good, when your trying to get 23 faces to all look the same direction and smile at the same time!



Of course we had to do a silly one too!
