Homer Alaska

Truck trip to Homer....sun is shining with no rain predicted.  Saddi is ready to get on the road...
This is our first trip into Homer so we are going to check out the Spit today.....

Headed south on Sterling Highway

Didn't make it far.....road repairs next 14 miles

Anyone need a "red" boat

Mount Iliamna Vocano which appears as snowy peaks across Cook Inlet

from Anchor Point, is actually one mountain with a 10,000 foot summit 

and four peaks

Tractor assistance allows boats to launch at just about any tide

rather having to wait for high tide

Beautiful views of Aleutian Range

We drove to Anchor Point

Homer Hill

RV Park in the distance

Homer Hill
