Homer...

As Jim said, we arrived in Homer yesterday. It is absolutely beautiful! We were worried about finding the Episcopal Church, but there was no need. Not long after we drove into town, we see this lovely little church right on the highway and yes, there was Father Bob and Sallie’s trailer. We were given a tour and awed by the spectacular view! We will hang around here another day or so and then we will head north to Fairbanks. We may rent a canoe in Fairbanks and try our hand at fishing again. Jim has already caught two, but I haven’t caught anything. That’s OK, there’s still time…
It is true, we aren’t going to take the ferry to Bellingham, Washington, but we are taking it from Haines, AK to Prince Rupert, BC, Canada. We will still have to go through Canadian customs, but will be bypassing much of Canada. Once we get to Prince Rupert, we will travel south through British Columbia down to Washington state. Anyway, it will be a new and different route home! But, don’t let me get ahead of myself, we have lots to do before then…
