NINILCHIK

June 28 ~ Thursday ~ hazy with sun.
I've met the 44 magnum pistol I won at the Ninilchik fair last year...a Taurus Raging Bull with about a 52 inch barrel and HEAVY...thinking, if I'd have to defend against a bear, the bear would win. It'll be interesting shooting as I use my left eye and am right-handed...wonder if my nose will be the same after that first shot...
Cindy got up early to make cinnamon rolls...and, yes, they were almost as big as Braeburn's and just as yummy!... I slept in, but did drop her off later at the fair grounds so I could go down to the beach. Waves were rolling in due to wind, but no bore tide***SOMEDAY I'LL SEE ONE***. Watched three bald eagles, one immature, fishing...took numerous pictures of them, old wooden boats, the Russian Orthodox church on the hill, and Mt. Redoubt across the inlet. Either the immature eagle couldn't yet fly well OR he was too full to fly...kinda hopped and jumped over to an old dead tree and was still sitting there when I left 45 minutes later. Just lounged around the rest of the day...evening was very calm with the sunlight making everything glow.
