As the spring arrives in this frozen northern tundra, the sleepy isolated people awaken and wander outside. This day marks the first "water" day we have had in Alaska. Our friends Andy and Lisa decided to purchase a kayak and so after much preperation (buy the boat, putting on the roof rack, loading the boat, having lunch, driving around a few lakes trying to figure out how to get in, tromping through mud soaked marsh to enter the water at a crude launch and praying no one fell in as we launched) we calmly entered the glassy surface of Sand Lake around 2:45. The air was warm, but brisk, perfect for a day on the lake. Sun shining, we took the new Brown kayak for its maiden voyage.
We had the great fortune to watch a float plane take off during our time on the water. Here Andy and Lisa are pictured as the plane flies overhead.
