One Week Late Post....voting, Native Tacos, Salmonberries and Salmon!

This post is a week late in coming so apologies! Dan is on Vacation and so On top of a hotel full to bursting, I have a few more responsibilities. Busy Busy week that has not left much time to have any fun with CD, AG and the Gang. Still, There were a few nice days this week. And How many people get to exercise out most fundamental right, The right to Vote, at a place with a view like this?
So on Tuesday I gathered up a group of Hotel workers and headed off to City Hall to Vote.

Yes, Even here on the very edge of the Bering Sea, Democracy Marches on.

And CD, who was there to volunteer.
In the good news category, God And Saint Michael the Archangel Came through for me again. The Results of the Blood Test on the Person who's needle I got stuck with came back clean. So Bye Bye Anti-Virals and Hello Good Night's Sleep!

Of Course my overcompetitive side came out..............


And in the end I came out with the fullest bucket!



The Next day it was off Berry Picking again, this time with CD solo on Bunker Hill soon to be joined by Alicia. Yes, the Berry Bushes are taller than CD!

Two Full buckets Before Heading off to Pick up Alicia.

Ballyhoo was pretty much a bust for berries.........
And there was this really creepy bunker..........

Still the Day was beautiful...........

....But still the Berries were calling.......so Back to Bunker Hill.

5 Buckets to celebrate with at the Unisea Grill , Where hungry Berry pickers go!
And Now for some videos of the Fish the Berries are named after!



Have a Great week Everyone!
