Saddle/Paddle - A Full Day of Adventure in Cooper Landing
Yesterday, I got out of bed with Steve at 3:50am when the alarm went off. I had a second alarm set for 6:30am, but decided to pour myself a huge mug of coffee and start my day anyway.
Steve left a little after 4am, to make his way down the Sterling Hwy to Soldotna for his fishing trip, and I leashed up Sedona and took her for a walk. There’s nothing like a peaceful morning walk, when you’re most likely the only one awake.
It was cloudy and sprinkling a little bit of rain, but I saw a smudge of blue sky peeking through off in the distance. I hoped it was a sign that we’d have a beautiful day - and it was!
I left the camper at 8:30am, and headed in the wrong direction. I thought I knew where Alaska Horsemen was located, but obviously my brain wasn’t working too well. A quick phone call got me turned around and headed in the right direction before I went too far out of my way. (more…)
