Yes, We Work on Sunday Too

Home sweet Home

Today I woke up early after another painful night.  My hip usually feels well in the evening but around 2 or 3 a.m. I wake up to sharp pains from my hip.  Kind of hard to say which part of it.   Anyway I gave up trying to get back to sleep at around 7 and headed out hoping to get some good pix.  I am staying in the upstairs part of this building, hosted by a very generous backer of the local Challenger Center, Tim Navarre.

My destination today was a Sports Expo in the nearby town of Soldotna, just across the Kenai River.  I got a few other pix along the way, unfortunately I was not in a good place to pull off when I spotted a group of 4 moose grazing along the road.

My Noble Steed

I worked the booth all day, then headed back to Kenai.  I work tomorrow afternoon, hopefully with a working spine and hip.

Mt Redoubt, a local active volcano across the inlet.

There is still ice clinging to the banks of the river in Soldotna.

My First Reindeer Sausage.  Don't think it was Rudolph.  Tasted more like Donder or Blitzen.
