This week Pat had a few days off, so on Wednesday night, we left and drove to Seward! We stayed the night in a lovely hotel right on the coast with a view that was breathtaking! Seward sits right on the tip of Resurrection Bay - appropriate for Easter time! It looks out on the Kenai Fjords. It is gorgeous! We spent some time at the Seward Sea Life Center, ate some fudge for breakfast, and enjoyed the day! Then this weekend we took off after church up past Cooper Landing to Kenai Lake. Where the lake turns into the Kenai River is where we launched our canoe and began our first river fishing! We had a tough time on the fishing end, but the canoeing was unbeatable! We ran a few rapids and remained in awe of our surroundings! We felt so good, that we let up on our paddling intensity and hit a rock a bit sidwards and almost tipped! Oops!
We made it back safely, and felt good about our first experience of the season!! We will likely not go much more on the Kenai as it will get very fast and deep with all the snowmelt! When the lakes open up, we'll head out there!

Looks like you had a great weekend! I bet it's nice to be out doors enjoying nature! How cold was it when you were fishing? Looks nippy with the snow in the background! Can't imagine if you would have tipped...brrrrr!
Love you both. and I like your hair, Melissa!
It was all the way up close to 40 degrees! Balmy!!
Hudson was excited to see his Aunt Mellie fishing. Then he kept asking to see the fish!! Next he asked if she had a baby in her tummy. Don't know where that came from! Maybe he wants a cousin to fish with. Great job on the scarf Melissa! I'm impressed!
Love you guys!
