Tomorrow, my wife and I are flying Sun Country from MSP to Anchorage, AK for 2 1/2 weeks, to see our grandkids and their parents. Recently, 7/7/09, our granddaughter, Jacqueline Rae was born. She has my hair, but not my beard. ;D

Son-in-law and I are planning a trip to world-famous Kenai and Russian, and possibly Kasilof, rivers. It looks now like King salmon fishing will be closed due to a bad run this year, due to overharvest in the ocean, from what I hear. But we still plan to fish silvers, reds, and possibly some pinks. I'm also hoping to gather some info on AK version of Q, Swan Lakes. It has trout, dolly varden, lakers, and grayling. No waldos in AK. :-?

When I have time, I'll post something... :o

Just checked the AK fish count website, over 51,000 reds have entered the Kenai river in the last three days. Almost as good in Kasilof. YES!!!
