Alaska Journey Day 77 / by Dave Hileman

A Split Day

Some of you know that our friend from Williamsburg, Tom, has joined us for a couple of weeks. We have been getting RV parks that have other lodging options for Tom until next week when he rents an RV for the days that we are back in Denali. Yesterday he went salmon fishing while CJH and I took a water taxi across the bay to a state park for a seven mile hike to a glacier lake that had some interesting ice bergs floating in it. Tom caught his limit of four salmon and we are going to cook one tomorrow night. He said it was a great experience. We enjoyed our outing, no birds, no fish or other animals but a really nice trail and the lake with the Grewingk (not a spelling error!) Glacier in the background was beautiful. We were all pretty tired and made it an early night. 

Cadillac’s Most Correct Viewpoint

I was not distracted but rather answered the call to service that the minion and the guides needed. But how, they were in separate boats? Even a Moose talented and clever as I could not be in two locations at the same moment. Since I don’t know if the minion is even worth anything yet, I stayed with the guides, cause I still don’t have a car driving permit. MOOSE RIGHTS NOW! I cannot afford to lose the guides, as mildly competent as the Driver is, still. I did let them go on the wander by themselves so I could work on my speech but they returned soon and back across the bay. Now I have only two days until the big reveal, tomorrow I simply cannot rescue anyone.
