Soldotna, AK (Day 61) to Ruger’s Home (Day 73)
Saturday; August , 2008 (Day 61); Friends of Troy – Soldotna, AK
It’s the last morning for the 0330 wake up call for us to get Stephen out the door. Thank heavens. While he’s out on the Kenai River, the pooches and I are busy doing the rest of the fine line breakdown of camp. We’ve had a marvelous time but Jay’s upcoming hospital ‘dye’ job is upper most in our minds. So this is how the day went:
Stephen didn’t bring salmon to the net on his last fishing day. He did bring a 32 inch Rainbow to the net but had to let it go . . . and dang it!, none of the women were in the area to take pictures but he did have lots of witnesses. Stephen had several salmon takes, but they were headed to the big water once hooked, so it was a fruitless to the freezer day but a satisfying end of the fishing on the Kenai, regardless of the take or no take.
The afternoon was spent with Stephen finishing camp chores and I doing laundry and the rest of the ‘mobile’ chores. That included taking the ‘rent a wreck’ back, receiving a trade for another ‘rent a wreck’ and a $60 credit. After provisioning and other tasks I was ‘home’ at 1730 hours, had time to make a quick hors de oeuvres and we were out the door to Rick and Joyce’s for our farewell cocktail party. The wind had kicked up (and the temperatures dipped) so we were indoor at their motor home for this fun gig. We headed home, did final camp and put a way chores, and went to bed!
