Friday Funny 10-22/2021 (Back from the Edge)

 

Here be dragons....

I haven't written a post in quite awhile, I bet you thought we had dropped off the edge of the world. 

We ended up spending more time in cell reception free zones than we normally do, and I was not motivated to write up a post in advance, and schedule it to arrive at the appropriate time. My bad. If you follow our Denali Rose Facebook page, you saw that I slipped in a few photos now, and again. Proof of life.

I had to reread the last few entries in the blog to see where I left off.  Oh, yes, we were working on the new non-skid for the forward part of the boat. On a warm, sunny day, we even finished the top of the pilothouse while at anchor in the Blaske Islands, Clarence Sound. Now, we only have the back deck to Kiwi Grip, and then the trim paint, but that'll be a "next summer" job. 


Lookin' good.

Gus approves.

Sunset

Over a predicted sunny weekend, we thought a visit to Le Conte Glacier would be fun, and even though, this late in the season, (end of August), the seals, and the whales are gone, the scenery was fantastic. 

Mushroom iceberg.


Le Conte Glacier.

We got in pretty close, but not TOO close.

Sunset in Ideal Cove, the anchorage close by to the glacier, the end to a beautiful day.

Our next excursion is to Pack Creek, on Admiralty Island. It is a bear viewing area cooperatively managed by the US Forest Service, and the Alaska Dept of Fish, and Game. I'll tell you about it next week.

As always, we enjoy hearing from you, either here in comments or on our Facebook Denali Rose Sailboat page.
