The Day We Did Not Fly
Up really early and off to the airport. We were orientated, fitted with hip waders and safety vests when the flights were canceled. So we went to a coffee shop, Two Sisters, where we had excellent pastries. It became a day of short hikes and bird viewing. Homer has interesting little places to explore. At Oceans & Islands National Wildlife VC we saw great exhibits, and we took a short guided walk and learned about some of the plants. And I got another new bird, Orange Crowned Warbler. Two other walks on the bluffs had little wildlife but clearing views of the mountains and fields of the state flower, Fireweed, everywhere.
Cadillac’s Most Correct Viewpoint
Such a disappointment - we went to the plane lot and sat in an office and then went home. What? The only good part was seeing the guides get into these giant boot things. Another clear advantage for Moose is long, stately legs we don’t need to cover up to walk across a pond. We are also superior swimmers. One of my most outstanding abilities is the 100 yard Knee-Twitch stroke. In fact, I would have gone to the 2015 Moose Comprehensive Games if I had known how to fly back then. I expect to take another day or two off and then get back to the Moose Rights Lecture Circuit. Also, I want to stay so the ladies get a chance to write back to me. And still waiting for the Minions from Mr. Mook. Especially needed if BdB does not soon get back. How hard can it be to find the fields of shirts?
