Travel to Homer, Alaska - July 12, 2013







The drive from Anchorage to Homer was spectacular.  Snow covered mountains dropped down into the pacific ocean. I never expected to see such sights.  They were prettier than any picture.  I wish my little camera could do the scenery justice. The drive with the ocean and mountains touching each other  lasted at least 20 miles.



After we left the ocean there was endless, beautiful mountain views.  We went through a place called Cooper.  It was a fishing village on the Russian River.  The river was a shade of blue that I have never seen before. This village was in the middle of no where but there lots of people fly fishing and people rafting.  It is hard to grasp how we could drive a hundred miles through wilderness and then all of a sudden come up on a very active small village.  But that just about sums up Alaska.
