Summer

Spring is finally here in South Central Alaska.  The snow is gone, temperatures are hitting 50 degrees and the high school seniors are feeling that the end of their public school days are coming to an end.  It's not a pretty time of year with gravel still on the roads and dust flying everywhere.   The trees haven't started to blossom yet and lawns are still yellow from months of freezing temperatures.  The highway has a different set of traffic with RV's, boats on trailers and motorcycles all pretending it's Summer.  Like the everyone here, we simply can't wait for it come.

It will be a great Summer.  Dip netting salmon on the Kenai, kayaking out of Whittier and Summer work are all Summer activities that I look forward to.  This is also the Summer when I find out that the cancer is completely gone from my body.  Yes, it will be a great Summer!
