Petersburg, AK
We made it into Petersburg today, one of my favorite towns to visit. It’s just such a cool little town, not much going on, just the way I like it. Most of the fishermen were just getting their boats ready to go for the season, I saw quite a bit of painting and deep cleaning going on. Now that I can appreciate boat handling skills, it’s quite interesting to watch them cruise around the docks. It’s quite a sight, is all I can say. If I could ever pilot a boat half as good as I saw the average pilot today, I would be very proud of myself. I had a real busy day today, so I didn’t take any pictures. The next time were in town here I’ll snap some pictures and give a view of what it’s like to live in a small Alaskan fishing town.
Things are going well on the boat now. I’m starting to get settled in and comfortable. Every time I come back this happens quicker and quicker, it’s more home now than anything. I’m sure this will get better and better with time.
My plans for summer vacation have subsided quite a bit. It’s hard to think about anything but the here and now at this point. I am thinking about going a more northerly route out to Utah instead of going through Bryce canyon and whatnot. It’s just so nice to not be hot up here, I’m thinking it might be better to try and head up to Yellowstone and Montana or something instead. Maybe……
