Wednesday

  

Here is where we are, at Bird Creek Campground.

There aren’t actually many birds here, but it’s a good place to be right now.

 

There is a nice trail that goes by us called the Bird to Gird Path.

It goes from Bird Creek, a hot salmon fishery, to Girdwood, a town about 12 miles down the road.

 

Here is the view at nearby Bird Point.

We have a tree turning yellow here and dropping its leaves,

 

…which brings the conversation back around to winter and Alaska and when winter arrives in Alaska.  We’re not worried about a little bit of cold and snow, unless that snow lands on our slide awnings and doesn’t melt off right away.  It’s hard to pull the slides in to move the rig when there is snow on the slide awnings.  They won’t roll up into the retractor.  No worries though; no snow in the forecast; no problem!  It’s only just August tomorrow.  How bad could it be anyway?
