Seward Marina
When Cheryl and I talked about food and stuff, planning out the weekend, she told us that check in was 11:00am and it was a two to two and a half hour drive. So I didn't think we needed to leave any earlier than nine in the morning. She said they would probably leave between seven and eight, so we decided to do the same. We got all packed and ready pretty quickly, and we left by 7:45am. When we got down there by 10:30am, we tried calling Randy and Cheryl to see where they were. They had made the reservations, so we didn't even know what spots we were in. When we couldn't reach them, we decided to drive back in to Seward and look around at the marina. When we finally did get a hold of Randy, they were still an hour away! I guess we didn't have to leave so early after all!
It was pretty chilly, but was only drizzling rather than pouring at this point. We bundled the boys as well as we could, and walked around. 
On the far side of the dock, on the left side of the post, you can kind of see the small spot in the water. That is a sea lion playing with his food. I took eight pictures....trying to get a good one. He was too far away (as I couldn't zoom) and he was too quick. By the time the picture actually took, I usually got a good picture of the ripples! But at least we did see a sea lion!
Baby Nick does not like to be restrained. He had just spent the last three hours buckled in his car seat, only to get out and be buckled in his stroller. Not only that, but I had to wrap him in the blanket to keep him warm and dry. He spent the whole time squirming around, trying to break free. But he sure is cute.
This is the best possible catch! This is where Nick and Angie left from on the charter. You can see in the background the cleaning stations where their fish were cleaned, de-boned, and filleted. Angie was happy she didn't have to even touch one fish. That's my kind of fishing. I like to fish if I don't have to bait the hook, touch the fish, clean the fish, or eat the fish. I like to cast the line, and reel it in!
This mountain is one of three in a group, one of which is called Marathon Mountain. For the purpose of this blog, we are going to pretend that this one (it may or may not be) is Marathon Mountain. Every Fourth of July, runners will run straight up and straight back down the mountain. Can anyone be that insane?
