My favorite bench

  

 Last weekend Jenni and I went across the bay to Homer to get supplies for the next few weeks and catch up with friends. It was a great visit. We spent most of our time playing board and card games and eating wonderful food in the company of those we love.

When I got back to the lodge today, I felt a bit lonely. I set up the computer to return emails and reply to those folks making reservations for this summer. It wasn't long before I looked out the window to see another incredible sunset in China Poot Bay. It was a great reminder that I work in one of the most beautiful offices in the world. 

I went outside to my favorite place to watch the sunset, the bench just outside Goose Point Cabin. I was so glad to see that the sun is finally clearing the mountains as it sets that I watched it until it disappeared from view. Sitting on the bench, I listened to ducks and eagles. An otter paused below me under the cliff to look up curiously. I'm so glad to be in this beautiful wilderness during the quiet season.
