Alaska Trip - Day 11

We drove into town early to get Cathy and then I dropped them both off at a friend's house. I hiked along Mineral Creek and found a beaver dam. I saw an interesting hill and climbed it - I could see the whole town. Lots of critters up there. Late in the day, Eileen asked if we could drive up to Kenny Lake, where her mom and dad had a storage building. One of her friends had a pickup truck, so we got as much stuff as we could. We had pizza for dinner with Helen and visited until late. They talked about the 1964 Earthquake (it leveled Valdez) and the huge snowstorms they have had recently. Lots of photos to show that winters here are not for the timid...
