Half of my life is spent at 59 degrees North latitude on the shores of Alaska's Kachemak Bay. The other half is spent at 70 degrees North latitude on the Central Beaufort Sea Coast. Lots happens in between, too, in this land known as The Last Frontier.

Saint Patrick's Day

Saint Paddy's Day in Homer Alaska brought blue skies, lots of sunshine, and plenty of friends over to our yard for an early season party.
We had grilled hot dogs, salmon salad, halibut ceviche, and plenty of beer to wash it down.
The snow has hardened up nicely, so the kids had plenty of trails punched into the neighboring woods where they went looking for bunny holes.
My friend Jarl is a trapper in Alaska's interior, and I acquired a beaver pelt from him that I had turned into hats for myself and my family. They are beyond warm and fashionable, too.
