Found the city Library this morning so we could update the blog and gather some travel information via the internet. That took about an hour and we drove from the Library to the Visitor’s Center in Kenai. We found out that the Official Balladeer of Alaska, (designated by the legislature and Governor) Hobo Jim, was going to be performing at 3:00 p.m.. Went for lunch at Victoria’s, (I went for the lingerie but didn’t see any), then back to the Center for the show. He is a legend around Alaska and he sang songs that he has written about living in Alaska. In the off-season he has a 2nd home in Nashville and is a songwriter there. He played for an hour we enjoyed the show. Drove to the end of the Kenai Spur highway to a beautiful spot at Captain Cook State Park where we looked across Cook Inlet at some snow-covered volcanoes. Back to an old cannery that they are trying to get started as a shopping destination and ate supper. Guess what we had, King Salmon! Haven’t found a bad one yet.
