The boats of Homer. Many of you have been asking me, “Brad, how about a calendar that showcases the boats of Homer?” Well, I can’t do a calendar, because I can never remember how many days there are hath September. But here are the pictures so you can build your own! We revisited Homer briefly… Read More Alaska (12) Boats of Homer – July 2017
Homer. If Cape Cod and Switzerland had a child, it would be Homer, AK. What a fabulous few days we have spent in Homer, and talk about drop dead gorgeous, sitting at the southern tip of the Kenai Peninsula. Even the ride down to Homer from Soldotna was unbelievable. As you make your way down… Read More Alaska (11) Homer – July 2017
Lake Clark National Park and Preserve. No, we did not take our Airstream here – that would be hard without swimmies or wings. But I did fly over in a small plane from Soldotna for the purpose of shooting wildlife photos! We camped at Klondike RV in Soldotna, which was a very nice campground, and… Read More Alaska (10) Lake Clark NP – July 2017
Seward. I know you are thinking – OK, another post showing beautiful views and talking about great human-interest stories. Not so fast!

You know I am above… Read More Alaska (9) Seward – July 2017
Kenai Peninsula (part 1). We departed Valdez on our continuing mystery tour – since it is generally a mystery where we will end up next.

Valdez. We visited Valdez briefly about a month or so ago, but this time we spent a little more time here and got to see Prince William Sound. This really is a spectacular place. Even the drive in to Valdez is spectacular. We sprung and stayed at the Bayside RV park, which is in a… Read More Alaska (7) Valdez – July 2017
Denali Highway. This will be a short post, but important just the same. Important you say? To whom? Well, not to you or me, but maybe someone with a lower threshold. Some of the questions I have received about our trip have been about about camping by the side of the road. My bride tells… Read More Alaska (6) Denali Highway – July 2017
Strap in. Denali. It has taken us 45 days and over 7,300 miles to get from TCPC in Crossville, TN to Denali. How can anyone come away from visiting Denali National Park and not feel… changed? Denali is just one of those special places that you could never appreciate without visiting. This post is intended… Read More Alaska (5) Denali NP – July 2017
