I drove down to Homer the other day and what a drive it was. I have never seen a more amazing road. The Seward Highway has to be one of the most beautiful roads in the country! Homer was a cool little fishing town and I had the opportunity to talk to a few locals at the Salty Dog Saloon. I stayed in the cabin shown below it was pretty wild not having electricity but when there are 20 hours of day light, electricity is not really a factor. the sun never completely sets for the 4 hours or so there is almost a constant sunset moving across the horizon!

Yesterday, I hiked up Flat Top Mountain in Anchorage. It was a relatively easy and short hike, but the last leg to the peak was covered in snow so it was pretty technical! It was a beautiful hike and there were some trails leading off to other peaks that I will definitely check out next week.

Yesterday I had the amazing opportunity to go flying with the Flint Family. The Flints have matching "his and her's" Super Cubs. I went with their whole family including their children. I have never experienced flying like this in my entire life. I have flown gliders, multi-engines, aerobatic planes, and nothing compares to what we did yesterday. Aside from the beautiful landscape being able to fly at 100ft above the ground for prolonged periods of time is amazing at one point, we were flying just feet above the water between the Knik Glacier and the mountain. We landed for some dinner then took off back for Anchorage after about 2 hours in the Super Cub. The capabilities of the Cub's were astonishing! being able to land in 250 feet and skimming the water with the balloon tires is something I will never forget. Later today I will post pictures of the hike up Flat Top Mountain!!
