This was a couple weeks ago, but I thought I would share our summer's delight! This year is the first year we have been able to obtain an Alaska resident fishing and hunting license! We have been pretty busy working this summer since we came off The Mountain, but Andrew was able to take advantage of fishing for salmon when the sockeyes made their way up the Copper River. He went down one day, fished all night, drove home the next afternoon, took a nap while I was at work, then when I got home we started processing the 24 fish at 11:30pm and finished up around 9:30 the next morning. After cleaning up we had time to take a quick one hour nap before going into work for the day. Out only gas money, a small charter fee and about 40 hours of hard labor, we now have over 100 pounds of sockeye salmon in our freezer (which is anywhere between $10-$13 per pound right now)!!!
