My Alaska trip.

[ND Mike]

I’m sitting at the airport in Chicago after flying a redeye flight from Anchorage. Alaska is an amazing place. I will post more later after I get some sleep. Jonathon, yes we saw brown bears! We actually had a young male about 10 feet from our boat fishing salmon. I represented some Walton’s gear too while I was on the Kenai Fjords tour. I snapped a selfie at a glacier.

ND Mike I thought the Kenai was some huge river when I was taken there. But, low and behold it was not that wide and only about 8-10 foot deep. There was a number of animals feasting at that river. The guide and guy I knew had some fun with the newbie as they took the boat with my back to the shore and nestled up to a moose and her young. She tapped me on my shoulder and I reacted as one would think. Yep, they had their fun scaring the heck out of me. Oh, the memories. Glad you had a good time.

ND Mike Glad you had a memorable trip, but everyone I have talked to who has gone to Alaska has said it is something they will never forget. Need up date on the fishing.

Should be some recognition from team blue’s captain for your selfless endorsement

ND Mike Can’t wait to hear the updates and highlights! Leaving on 7/1 for my trip and it has been a couple of years since I made the trip there. My uncle sent this pic of a young bull that has been bedding in his yard at his cabin.

ND Mike I bet that was one heck of a trip. I’ve always wanted to go. Glad you had a good time.

[ND Mike]

Spidey that is pretty cool.

DJS303 make it happen!

[zbigjeff]

ND Mike It’s always better after it was over because if the situation was reversed, I’d be doing the same thing with a newbie. Yep, almost xxx myself.

[ND Mike]
