This weekend I went to Jake's cross country meet at Skyview and then we went for a last halibut trip this morning. The weather couldn't be better, got our fish and were back before lunch.

Here's the first bottleneck.
Then the first hill.
I had planned to get his finish with the clock in the back ground but the officials stepped right in the way at the last moment, so I blew it. He did good!
Here is the most unnaturally enhanced salmon run in the world. The Homer Spit Pond. Hatchery smolts are released here in the salt, and when they return, years later, the tourists have the opportunity to catch kings and silvers from the shore. The pond is high and dry at low tide. Here, the incoming tide is refilling the pond.
Just have to mow the lawn one last time and finish packing.
See you in Portland.
