Alright so I promised some pictures so here they are... though I STILL haven't gotten the picture with me and my Prize-Winning (for being the smallest!!) Halibut. It's funny... We went out fishing again yesterday and caught a TON of rockfish but not halibut.
Fireworks at the Hatchery... they were pretty impressive!
We finally made it to the back of the lake at the Hot Springs...
The stream coming out of the woods... it was really pretty back there.
No, he never caught anything... Nice scenery though, eh!?
Back at the Hot Springs... you've sorta seen a picture like this before. I was standing right on the edge of the rocks to take this.
After work on Thursday, we all decided to head to Sandy Beach for a fire and BBQ. YEAH, there's really a beach! The tide was really low right now... the water ended up coming all the way up to the rocks on the right of this picture.
Good times at Sandy Beach... (Left to Right) Angie, Deena, Andy, Tim, Jessica
Every now and then you see a BIG cruise liner in Chatham Strait...
Bald eagles... The closest one is an adult. The one behind it on the upper rock which doesn't really look like a bald eagle is a juvenile bald eagle. They are covered in alot of fluffy feathers and stuff so they, often times, look LARGER than the adults.
There are two young (probably 2 yrs. old) bears in this picture... look closely. One is in the water... you can only see it's head. The other is on the rocks... the one in the water was hanging around all day trying to catch some fish but he's not very good at it. We watched the poor guy for a long time but never saw him get anything. Then that other bear (on the rocks) came out. It was alot lighter in color but about the same size and age. They are both pretty skinny and gangly... long arms and legs! But pretty cute!
This is the lighter colored bear (the blonde one, as I will refer to him). He was looking for fish right at the weir and it looks like he's resting his head on the rocks. It's hard to tell but it really is kinda cute!
Yep... uh huh... say what you must. I'm just showing this to say... "LOOK... NO BEARD!" ha ha ha This was at Sandy Beach...
I'm working as a Fish Culturist at Hidden Falls Salmon Hatchery in a remote spot near Sitka, Alaska! AM I CRAZY!? I'm starting to think so...

Umm, I decided that I want a bear for Christmas. So make sure you bring one back from Alaska for me. And no cheating...teddy bears are cheating.

Ha! I knew the "Griz" was up there somewhere, just waiting to be found by you. You kept a pretty good secret! Nice to know you have good taste and don't pick ugly ones. Hope all goes well and we can meet him sometime. Love DAD P>S> He IS a Milwaukee's Best Beer drinker, ain't he?
