The last weekend of May we decided to go back down but spend a little more time. We didnt get a good chance to see Homer because of the time we got there so we spent Friday at Homer. We checked out all the little shops and the fish processing plants. Then Saturday we took the ferry over to Seldovia to explore the little town. I went there when I was younger and I had some great memories of the bed and breakfast we stayed at. There was an adorable cocker spaniel there. I remember this restaurant we went to that had the best quiche I had and have ever had since. It wasnt exactly how I remember it though. It was very quiet, not very many stores to explore. There was a chainsaw carving competition which was awesome, there was a kid that hooked into two king salmon from this bridge (he didnt land them though cause he didnt have good line), it was all in all a beautiful town but not exactly what I had expected.
After we got back to Homer we decided to head to Soldotna to grab camping chairs and camp by a river we heard had a good spot to catch kings. On our way Devin got a phone call saying he needed to get back in town cause he was needed in Fairbanks the following morning for work stuff. It was very dissapointing since he was supposed to have a 4 day weekend. We headed back though and on the way he got another call saying you can stay another night but we need you Monday. We had already driven so far back it wasnt worth it to turn around. So that cut the weekend short. We had fun though! I really really like camping in the car, we have a litte camp stove we cook dinner on the cooler and then have a nice big warm bed in the car. Its perfect!
