July 11

It was a steady rain all night and we awoke to more of it. We went for a short walk to stretch our legs then headed south. Our destination for today is Anchor Point which is the western most point you can drive via road to in the continental US. You can get further west in many parts of Alaska and Hawaii but good luck driving there from New York State.

As we drove south the weather cleared and we ended up with a beautiful yet cool day. For lunch we met up with our friend Nancy. She once lived in Alaska but now comes up each summer with her family. We had not seen her for maybe ten year or so and it was great catching up with her.

After a great lunch in Kenai we continued south to Anchor Point. After a nice barbeque supper, we went for a walk to the beach to find it alive with Alaskan crows (read eagles). I enjoyed photographing them for maybe an hour then we headed back to the trailer for the night.
