Late August ~ Skookumchuck Charters ~ Southeast Alaska Custom Tours & Charters

Late August

More long time friends Anita, Diana and Linda finally join Cindy and Capt'n Ted for a week of cruising, fun and laughter.

The Capt'n has known Diana Strzok since 1970 when we both called Wisconsin home. Anita Williams and Linda Ewers he has known since the early 80s when Alaska became his home. It was almost a natural for these three to team up when in the 90s, Alaska became Diana's home as well. However, it took another fourteen years for these gals to make up their minds for a cruise on Skookumchuck.
	We had fisherpersons in the group.
And we had a reader person!
	So explain this!
OK! So it wasn't all about catching fish. We managed to put out crab and shrimp pots too.
	Plus dig a few clams.
And what's clam digging without checking out the tide pools?
	A nice collection of mini stars and other critters.
And how's this for a clam?
	Or a cliff?
More digging on the beach. What are these gals looking for?
	Hey, the fossils are here!
Who cares? This sun is glorious!
	A while later, halibut cleaning lessons for all.
And then a chance to pick some red huckleberrries.
	Nice haul girls!
Hmmm...good! Talk about having fun! A grand time for all.
