Our visit with Lisle was all to short, but it was wonderful to see her looking healthy and fit despite her long work days. From what she had to say, she has met some very interesting "bush" people who make every trip out onto the river a new adventure. Now that King Salmon fishing is closed on the rivers that she fishes, her hope is for shorter days and more time to fish herself. Fishing for silvers doesn't seem to hold the same level of urgency that catching a King does. For one thing, a fisherman can catch and keep more than one fish per day. We're hoping to have our own experience fishing for them on the Kenai upon our return from Brooks. Our weather has been as anticipated, clouds, drizzle and an occasional break in the clouds allowing for some sun to shine on the beautiful snow covered peaks. Taking a ride on the 4 wheeler here in the yard up onto the mountainside, Twin Peaks, to look for sheep might be our adventure for today, as well as a trip into Palmer or Wasilla, both nice towns with great stores. We have been introduced to Fred Meyer, a store with everything anyone would need and many things one would not.
