The sun was out and so were the people in Kenai! This youngster was tunneling in the snowbank next to the school's front doors! He didn't have on a coat, but he was having a great time.
A note on my photos. There are spots on the pictures. When I dropped my camera in the sawdust, it sort of changed how it looks out onto the world...
Ice Pans. If you google these, you won't find what you are looking for. You are more apt to find photos of them in the images section of the google search. Especially if you add the words 'Cook Inlet'. Anyway, whatever they are called, they are fascinating! Many of them are rounded. Some are not. They are made of layers of ice and sand and sea.
This is crazy cool. It looks treacherous and it is solid!
The rime from the waves lapping the shore. Frozen sea foam....Gorgeous!
The professor. Alas, I had to ask later what was taught. I often have trouble paying attention in an outside classroom. Thankfully, Mike is patient!
You can see the ice bobbing in the ocean, too. Which is why they can pile up on each other.
This one was more round than square. I thought it was a rock, but it wasn't.
Scary selfie standing on stacked sand and snow!
More rime made from the frozen sea water/foam. It was crunchy!
On the other side of the Kenai, boats are snow locked. Waiting for the day they can move back into the water and find fish.
Mt. Redoubt. There is a tiny puff to the right of the top of the mountain. Mom says it is Eileen discussing things.
Sunset.
Later, we got back to Kenai and picked up a lovely arrangement sent by a friend. I'm going to take it to the church, so it can be lit. (Mom on oxygen and candles are sort of not too compatible.) After church, it will live quietly on the TV stand thing in the living room.
