Picture update

Here is a picture summary of some of what we've been up to in our spare time.
It is always nice to go for a paddle in the morning on a flat calm bay.
And when friends invite you to go halibut fishing everyone has a good time! But I think George enjoyed it the most. He was grinning ear to ear from the time the tractor towed the boat into the water through filleting his first halibut. We caught our limit and then enjoyed fresh caught fish and chips with friends and family in the endless summer light.

View of the halibut before Nikki pulled it into the boat.
Summer is still slamming up here. Lou's big race is this weekend, wine is flying out of the winery, and we are really close to owning a home. The grasses at the Fox River field sites has really grown up and everything is green. The slopes around Homer are covered in lupine as we hike to our headwater sampling sites.
