June 26, Soldotna and Kenai


We drove over to Kenai, about 10 miles, and met Kathy Romain, Orville Terry’s daughter. Kathy has lived here since 1980 and is very enthusiastic about the Kenai Peninsula and was very helpful about things in the area to see and do. We had Sandi’s glasses sent to her from Alberta, Canada so the eyeglass saga is finally over. Kathy recommended the Swiftwater Campground just south of Soldotna, a city park right on the Kenai River, so we moved this afternoon. It is much nicer spot than the one we had at the Fred Meyer parking lot. This afternoon we tried to make plans for the next couple of weeks and decided we are running out of time. Not sure we can see it all. We have been trying to get a good look at a Moose and this evening one walked right through our campsite. Almost close enough to pet. Had a campfire this evening and roasted hotdogs for supper. There are only 2 times hotdogs are good, at the ballpark and over a campfire. But, someone forgot to pack the chocolate bars so no smores. Darn!
