Wow,
was this fun!
Tutka Bay, Alaska, near Homer. Fishing on Don and
Lani Kassube's boat.
Naturally, Elna's halibut is bigger than mine!

Just a typical sunset from the Kassube's cabin.
That's Mt. Iliamna on the left and Mt. Redoubt on the right.
We stayed with Mary Jane East the first few days.


Here's Lynnette Smith with Mary Jane and Elna.
Our main reason for the Alaska trip was to go to Vicky Balich's daughter
Kelly's wedding.
Here's Ray and Vicky.


and with Lynnette at the reception at the Anchorage Sheraton.
Here we are with Don and Karen Lamprecht,
near Flat Top Mountain above Anchorage.


Don and Karen's cabin near Big Lake.
Here's
Ray's old buddy from his oilfield days,
Dick Siira, his lovely wife Robyn, and hockey pro Daniel.
Denny and Carol Hebert,
with their great twin boys,
Keith and Brian.

Here's Vicky and Elna at our favorite burger stop in Anchorage,
The Arctic Roadrunner

What a great setting, next to Campbell Creek!
Don and Lani Kassube were our next door neighbors
in Anchorage for 13 years.

Don and Lani took us to Homer for a few days
with their daughters Dawn and Heidi.

About a hour out of Homer on their boat, we
crossed Kachemak Bay and found their "cabin"
hidden in a gorgeous cove, accessible only by boat.


That's McDonald Spit in the background,
about 10 minutes from the cabin.

Looks like hard work, doesn't it?
Dawn and her friend Ed are holding the poles.

This little beach is right in front of the Kassube's cabin.
Homer is behind the islands and across Kachemak Bay.
When Ray was working in Russia in 1995, he met
Keith Nuss.
Keith met Sveta, a lovely Russian girl.

Now Keith and Sveta are married,
living in Valdez, Alaska.
