Weeks 10-12

Flying from Petersburg to Juneau is only around a half hour but it is some incredible views.  Here are two glaciers that are just north of Petersburg in Thomas Bay.  The glacier on the left is Baird and the one on the right is Patterson.  Patterson glacier runs into Patterson lake but that is accessible from Thomas Bay.

Here is another shot of one of the glaciers in Thomas Bay.  This is the Baird glacier.

Here is just another shot of Baird.

August 15-19th I flew down to Seattle to meet up with Therese.  Here I am at Pike's Place Market.  This is the market that is famous for people throwing fish.

This is the gum wall behind the market.  There is tons of gum put on these walls and some people will even make pictures out of their gum using different flavors for different colors.  In the center of the picture someone made mario out of gum.  It is pretty impressive. 

With all the different flavors on the wall Therese could not help herself and had to take a few licks.

Here is Therese's first raw oyster.  We both had our first one's here and we even had them a couple of times.  They are pretty good.  Oddly, the waiter we had here was from Minnesota.  He lived in uptown before moving out to Seattle and he said that he now lives in their equivalent of uptown.

Instead of going into the Space Needle we went to the top of the Smith Tower in Pioneer Square.  It was a great view and a really nice old building. 

This is also taken from the Smith Tower.  Here is the home of the Seahawks/Sounders and behind their stadium is the Mariner's stadium, Safeco Field.

We were lucky and the Twins happened to be playing in Seattle when we were in town.  We had seats in the front row of the upper deck right behind home.  Twins lost but it was a lot of fun to go to another stadium.

I finally caught some nice keepers.  I went fishing at Blind River Rapids and caught a couple of Coho Salmon.  I am smoking them and vacuum packing them to bring home.  I am hoping to get a few more.

Here is half of the Timber Sale Prep crew with their catch.

I have not had very photos up recently because the screen on my camera broke.  I can still take pictures but I have no idea what I am looking at or if it is focused.  I have a new screen on the way so I will hopefully start getting more pictures up.  I am now working in a new area so I have new stuff to look at and take pictures of.  Plus I will hopefully have more fish pictures.
