Homer, AK

SURFS UP in Homer Alaska...Really!

Driving out the Homer Spit yesterday and much to my surprise I found Surfers!

Yes they were surfing ... in February...

It was a balmy 20 degrees... and the sun was kind of shining

Are they crazy or what??? Tough For Sure!

Looked like they were having FUN!

Life really is wild in Homer Alaska

Sam goes Global...

It is always a good thing to see young people doing well

Sam had a rough patch last year ...but with the help of his mom, good friends and his own great attitude

Sam pretty much holds the whole world in his hands...

Sam's future is Bright and we are very proud of him!

Job Well Done Sam!

Anyone seen that show... tougher in Alaska? It is a pretty good show... our good friend Geo Beach goes from job to job and shows how earning a living in Alaska might be a little tougher than the average... whether it is mining for gold, ice trucking or working for power companies in below zero, wind blowing, mind numbing scenarios... there is always a little wrinkle to doing normal jobs in Alaska! I did tell him he should do a show on Realtors in Alaska...try finding corners in a blizzard....

For some reason I thought of Geo tonight when I saw these kids ride by....

Kids are a little tougher in Alaska

Oh Yeah...... On the Beach.....

Winter is really Beautiful in Homer Alaska...

You should check it out sometime....

Went out to the Homer Spit today... thought we would check it out ...

see what was going on...drove out to the end of the road

Snowflakes were sprinkling down and the sky was gray with some promise of light...

Drove over to where Jean Keene aka the Eagle Lady had lived...

they have pretty much erased her from her spot..

Too bad the city of Homer couldn't have put a park up there to remember her by...

True they let her live there all that time but now..... poof it is all gone...

She still has some friends left...

They hang there...

Waiting...
