I'll keep the blog short and sweet today as it's already quarter to midnight and we have a fairly long day of driving ahead of us tomorrow.
We spent the day driving around through the mountains above Homer today and checked out all of the little shops on "the spit." It was just wonderful - sunny, but cool. We finally had what I expected in the way of wildlife encounters today - a moose in the morning, a bear in the afternoon, and some eagles and whales later in the day. Holy cow! (Oh. No...we didn't see any cows.)
Tomorrow we leave for Palmer (just north of Anchorage) where we had our brakes done on the bike on the way here. We're going to stop for an oil change and we'll spend the night there before heading for Valdez on Thursday. It's quite a long drive between here and Valdez and we're trying to limit our driving to less than 350 miles per day. Tomorrow may be closer to 400 if we take a side trip to Seward, so we're going to get an early start.
More tomorrow...

We are going to Secord Lake. It is 10 miles Northeast of Gladwin. We have a cabin on the lake. We are leaving Thursday and will return Sunday. Jazzy, our dog is due to have pups on the 8th-11th. Jazzy had an x-ray is having three pups. Nicole is working at ColdStone ice cream shop on 23 mile. Again, the pictures are beautiful. Are you taking the same way home? Keep warm and talk with you soon. Kim
Have a blast, Kim. I hope the weather is good for you. Let me know when Jazzy has her pups. Maybe I can come by and cuddle them for a little while when I get home? Say hey to Nicole for me. I'm sure Jack and I will see her at Coldstone as I'm a big fan of their chocolate brownie cone!
