summer solstice :)

We had a little over 18 hours of daylight yesterday. The sunrise was at 5:07 and did not set until 11:14! Carla made us "Kickass Halibut" for dinner to celebrate (she caught it herself just a few feet from her cabin in Homer). She got the recipe from a 90 year old woman who has been in Alaska for over 50 years. It was hot! Carla is a ferry naturalist as part of her job, so she rides the ferry from Homer to Kodiak twice a month and talks to people about the wildlife and natural history of Alaska.
