Soldotna Days

After a good night's sleep, Vince, Colin, and I were ready to hit the road. We packed our bags and fishing gear and set out for Soldotna. While Vince and I usually make it there once a year, it had been around 8 years since Colin had been there, so he was looking forward to seeing how things had changed since we grew up.

One stop we had to make along the way: The Wildlife Conservation Center

along Turnagain Arm; here's one of the bears munching on some blueberries :)

Our first stop in Soldotna was our old neighbor's house. We spent a few hours catching up, telling stories, and sharing pictures, then headed our cousin's house for a visit before heading to St. Elias for some pizza.

Bellies full, it was time to check into our hotel and get ready for our next adventures...
