Alaska: Day 4


This might not look all that exciting. But it's for my mom. The light bits floating on top of the water are all pumice -- that is, of course, floating rocks courtesy of the eruption that created the Valley of 10,000 Smokes, the original reason for the creation of Katmai National Park. We have video, too, of Michael and Darcy throwing armloads of pumice into the lake and having them bob back up to the surface. Mom/Kathy/Grandma loves the floating rocks!

Thanks, Ange, I did find those floating rocks truly amazing when we visited Katmai. When we got off the floating plane, there were the floating rocks ...

And they're still there! Floating. Just for you.
