Alaska

As some of you know Mike went to Alaska for 10 days with his dad and some friends. What a trip this was. 10 days of straight fishing. (doesn't sound like fun to me) The second day that they were there they went deep sea fishing, they caught lots of Halibut and Cod. They even saw several killer whales, they would swim right up to the boat. The weather in Alaska isn't as warm as the weather in Utah. The high was only 65 with lots of rain. They was maybe a couple of days that the sun actually came out. Alaska is beautiful. Mike said the weird part was that they were in the mountains but they were only at about 1500 feet. Green and wet everywhere.

There is a couple from Utah that bought this place in Alaska 12 years ago, and all summer they host groups of people for fishing trips. The place they eat use to be a bar/restaurant. Then there are a couple of houses in the back where the quests sleep. Mike ate better in Alaska then he eats here at home. Everyday they would get the most amazing breakfast, then Steak and Prime rib for dinner. (yea that doesn't happen here).

Mike was able to spend a lot of time with his dad. The two of them had a wonderful time and they are already planning their trip for next year. Most of their trip was spent on the river fishing for King Salmon. Mike and his dad unfortunately didn't catch any, but we were still able to bring some home.

As you can see I like doing the slide shows when there are several pictures. But please forgive me I am still new at this and some how I put the same slide show on twice, you get a double dose. (sorry) but along with the slide show is some music. Please enjoy
