Hubby and I went for a walk on the beach yesterday in the neighboring city of Kenai, about 10 miles away. It did not disappoint.

This family had a blast sliding in the snow below the glacier. Their shadows in the snow resemble a centipede.

A few more pics of Byron Glacier. Everything in Alaska is so HUGE! It still amazes me after all of these years.

Yesterday, we also hiked to the base of Byron Glacier in Chugach National Forest. It was amazing! Chugach National Forest consists of 5.4 million acres.

Gorgeous female moose foraging for food in a lake in Southcentral Alaska. According to photographer Phillip Flippo, the plants gathered from the bottom of a lake are very high in the nutrients and salt moose need.

Every summer, hubby and I go out to a State Rec Area that's about 40 miles from our home to ride/walk on the beach. It's never, ever crowded and has my favorite little beach cabin.

And from today's adventure to the beach, the insanity that is dipnetting season in the Kenai River. Every dot you see is a human being with a huge dipnet in the River.

I have tons of pics to share from our trip, but I wanted to first share these from our trip home yesterday. We have had SOOOOOO much rain over the last two months, but we have finally hit summer and yesterday was particularly glorious at Turnagain Arm on the Seward Highway. We stopped, walked and I took tons of photos. Here is the first batch.

Just a few more pictures from today in Palmer, AK. I haven’t been here since 2016 and truly forgot how beautiful it is. We have enjoyed today and really excited about tomorrow.
