Fall and end of Summer


It has been more than couple months since my last post due to that we did not have any real adventures lately. We took a care of outstanding commitments such as weddings, family visits, birthdays and work related travels.
We went to Toronto to visits J's family and J's best friend wedding than i went for couple days to visit my family to Czech at the beginning of September..
Between those two trips J's parents and one of the nephews pay a visit to us here in Anchorage which was a lot of fun. We did some fishing and mushroom picking along with some necessary tourist trips.
Especially enjoyable was the trip to Halibut Cove which is very cool place. We took the Danny J boat out of Homer and spent several hours just walking on the island's boardwalks. The Saltry restaurant is pricey but food was pretty good. There is nothing better than have couple beers sitting on the boardwalk and overlooking the bay.

J took me for my birthday to live it up in the yurt in Talkeetna for a weekend at the end of September. It is our second time at the yurt and we just freaking love it! Not only it has a real Alaskan feel to it, but you actually has to work for it as well. Here is random fact about me, I love chopping wood! There was a lot of chopped wood after that weekend by the yurt! Just effing love that. We also had a big bone fire, good food and tasty beers.

October was in the name of hiking. We did couple hikes around the Anchorage. We really enjoyed the one by the McHugh Creek where we went to check out the burn site of the McHugh fire which was blazing through that area in August.

Other than that nothing major, but i already put the winter adventures planning into the works and I'm getting really excited!
