July 18th

Today Erik and I gathered salmon berries for pancakes. We got a bit sidetracked however and explored a few of the empty buildings around the college campus. To our surprise the ceramics building was still open and we had fun exploring the abandoned pottery and tools.

We walked through totem park and I showed Erik how easy it was to see eagles and ravens in Sitka. I made a point to show him ever bird that flew over head to make my point. Soon he was spotting them like a pro.

We made our way down to the docks to look at the sealife that made its home under the pears. Erik was very excited when I found a few starfish for him to hold. After this we headed back to S.J. because Ronda was going to be picking up the gang for another dinner and movie night at her apartment.



At Ronda’s we feasted on spaghetti and Italian sausage, a pasta dish, salad, banana pudding and of course Coke cake. We watched a movie, the Prestige and had a blast just hanging out. I’m glad Erik made the opportunity to come and meet all the wonderful people I have been talking so much about.
