Well, I thought I was going to get us out of Bristol Bay with this post, but then I realized I didn't actually show Bristol Bay! And we did make a special trip to Naknek just so we could show Darcy. First, though: this is the bulletin board in the multi-agency visitor center next door to the King Salmon airport. The little piece of paper in the corner is four haiku I sent with a Christmas card our second Christmas out of Alaska. The photo at the bottom is of Darcy Jo from the same year. She is CRAZY-LOVED in her first home.
And here is Bristol Bay, home of some of the world's largest salmon runs, where peat and tundra fall off the cliff onto the beach. Where set-net rights are emblazoned on small billboards with ramshackle buildings for fish camps. So beautiful.
