Charlie got up very early today and was back out
fishing. I walked down after I woke up,
and saw someone snag 5 during the time I was watching. It was obvious he could see them in the water
– but we could not. I asked a Ranger
that walked up what was the deal with that, and he said we needed a pair of
Polaroid glasses, and could get them at Fred Myer for around 10.00. Needless to say, after lunch, we drove to
Soldotna and bought each of us a pair.
After finding the glasses we needed, we drove on down to the Kasilof River to check out the fish
there, only a few people were fishing there, so we did not stay to fish. We then went to Bing’s Slip Recreational Area and tried out our new glasses. We could definitely see better – in many places I could see the bottom of
the river.
Came home and heated up leftovers and fried a few more
potatoes. Charlie made another fire and
we sat out there again tonight. It is always so relaxing sitting by a fire and
just messing with it.
We may have to
change campsites tomorrow if someone has this reserved, hopefully we will be
able to stay here another 3 days or so. It is so convenient for fishing, Charlie can go early, and I can walk down about an hour later. Works out perfectly!
It is cold outside, so made hot chocolate and read before
going to sleep. It is so relaxing being
here, I think I am going to love this retirement gig. I know Charlie does.
(Happy Birthday Jan! Hope
you had a wonderful day.)
Heard from Molly – she is in Anchorage now, so we are going
to find a time to get together. It will
be fun seeing her.
