Kenai AK

This trip has been chock full of once in a lifetime events. We had another one today. We are camped at the junction of the Kenai river and Cooks inlet. Once a year, for 3 weeks, Alaskan citizens can come here and catch salmon with a dip net. Glad you asked. It's a humongous butterfly net used to catch fish. (See pic) You push this thing out into the water and the fish swim into it. Drag it back to shore, club the salmon on the head with a stick, repeat. The number of fish being caught in this manner was not to be believed. Most of the fish were beheaded, gutted and fileted right there. The seagulls absolutely loved it. Of course, walking along the beach covered with fish offal did nothing for Jenny's appetite. She thinks she might have nightmares tonight.
