Homer, AK in the springtime

This is actually not an attractive picture of Alaska, but it reminds me of warmer times when I could go outside with just a light jacket or perhaps a sweatshirt on. Now I have to wear long-johns, winter coat, hat, gloves, and boots just to go check my mail. I am so tired of Alaska winters and my high gas bill that I could almost leave. I just have to remember that there are no snakes here like there are almost everywhere else and I stay put. BTW that is a pile of wood that has washed up on the spit and that black thing is a raven... or maybe a crow (it was really small compared to the ravens in Anchorage.) Any who I've got to split for a date. Chow.
