People at the Kenai Peninsula

century in search of furs.











left scars on the land & lots
of abandoned military equipment.












Today people explore the
the Kenai Peninsula in kayaks
made from man made materials.






Eric and I walk Beluga Slough Trail adjacent to the Visitor Center.







We walk out onto the
salt marsh on a metal
grated trail.


 Eric scans for birds as he walks the trail.









One of the neighbors shows
an eclectic flair in decorating
around the property.






This RV has taken on a
very rustic look.
Eric & I enjoy the rest of our walk..
