We went to the Library this afternoon and watched a couple of interesting films about the 1964 earthquake that hit Alaska. The epicenter was near here and the town was almost wiped out with both the earthquake and the multiple tsunamis’ that followed for the next several hours. We then spent a couple of hours on the internet trying to find a place to stay in Sitka in a couple of weeks. We already have ferry reservations but no room reservations. Sandi called 10 places that are all full so I sent email messages to 15 more. Will see if we get a reply from any of them. Turn in tomorrow for another exciting day and see if we found a place to stay or if we will be homeless in Sitka. That would be a good movie title wouldn’t it? OK, maybe not. Had a campfire on the beach tonight with the neighbor. We are parked right in front of Mt. Marathon, which is the mountain that 800 idiots run up and down on the 4th of July. It’s almost straight up and the winner runs up and back in less than one hour. Not my idea of a good time.
