Little Puddle Jumper

I just liked this one!
Flying low.
Here is our little puddle jumper, we had all of 16 people on this plane.
Here we are finally in Alaska, this was taken out the terminal window, b That was our plane coming around the bend to get us. You could call these little planes sky taxis because all the people that were using them had lunch boxes, grandmas and grandpas, or people coming and going to work. Kids and dogs also. Quite interesting to take it all in. A lot of the people were local Indian people. Don't know what they were because we are too far south for Eskimos.
We arrived with a temp. of 33 degrees and it hasn't changed yet, but what is so funny it I have seen numerous people with shorts and tank tops, with the windows rolled down in the cars!!! Brrrrrrrr!!!  Jonah said this is spring weather to them, wow! 
I did get to experience the north woods snow, it snowed 2" today and was so pretty-big lazy, slow snow.
In a half hour from walking off the plane here in Homer, we were sitting in April's kitchen eating smoked salmon!!
It was soo good, don't know if I have had anything quite like that.

  2. I just found your photos and am enjoying the trip through you pictures. Sounds like everyone that wants to get anywhere, gets on a plane to get there! What a different way of life!
