Larson Bay, Kodiak Island



OMG!


This place is beautiful, the Deer, Bear and Eagles are a wondful treat to an outdoors person like myself. I went hiking today and saw lots of Eagles, a Sea Otter, a few Deer and heard a Bear chompping his teeth in the brush. Thank the stars above that's all it was. I'm 5 miles outside the Village and by myself. Not a good place to have an "encounter" with a Kodiak Brown Bear.


I'll be working here for the next 2 or3 months, I should have lots to blog about. So far the people are friendly. We've only been here a week and am just starting the project. I am looking forward to exploring this wonderful place more and sharing it with you.

Board Walk Community

Not much to Wack in Kasigluk.
I spent the month of April working there and although the people are very friendly there just isn't anything to do. Hunting.......the Geese haven't arrived, the Tarmigan are gone and the Sand hill Cranes are flying to better places. Fishing.....the ice in the break-up stage so it's too unstable to drill holes in. The Pike are hungry too!
I could always play Bingo or Pull Tabs.......no thank you, I'll end up going through a mating ritual or something. I jokes!
