Fwd: Happy Thursday from Ketchikan
Date: June 25, 2015 at 5:54:04 PM AKDTOur newest BFF neighbor (Dwight from St. George Utah) & his visiting kids went out this morning, shared this (our dinner) with us about 2hrs ago -- a 2# chunk of King Salmon (goes for about $35/lb in Seattle)... Mmm, mm good at only 2hrs outta the water! (Fannie inhaled hers while I'm still savoring 1/2 of my double-sized serving.)
The red piece is being made into sashimi... (should only be done after flash frozen to kill parasites & bacteria)

2015-06-06 -- North to Alaska, the gold rush is ON
On the ROAD again -- Willie is singing (in my head) again!
But, also, are you ready for basketball?!? Our GS Warriors are in the Finals! My sister in Cleveland is reminding me of my roots!
After dreaming about returning to Alaska WITH NO DEADLINES since '07, we're finally set to sail on the M/V Matanuska departing from Prince Rupert, BC next week! We left SJ Saturday (a 1-week delay for RV repairs, and avoiding Friday traffic by doing laundry, etc), short layover outside Sacramento for Saturday vigil mass & kiss-off visits for dinner & Sunday brunch with Fred & Nancy, Justin & Nicole)... Hoping it's our last shot of hot 90° days, tho the heat runs all up the I-5 to Seattle, abit cooler as we go (so far, it's 10° cooler here in Mt Shasta ,,, Sac area peaked at 103, got down to 93° here when we landed @ 3:45pm.
Ciao, for now (pics & more info, later),
