Juneau, Alaska

 Nathan has been in Juneau cat (Fiona) sitting for Eric & his wife Timi while they travel.  Eric was his boss but he recently retired.  George and I decided to visit Juneau while he was here.  We got to the MAX station about 1:30 pm on Friday.  Rebecca took the car home.  She will take care of the pets while we are gone.  

Mt Hood

We got to the airport an hour later.  No problems going through security and getting to our gate.  

Before taking off I saw this plane.  I was not familiar with it.  It is a German airlines, Condor. Apparently, they come in a variety of colors.

It was a quick flight to Seattle.

We did not have much time in Seattle

We made it to our gate in plenty of time.  But not enough time to buy a dinner. So I bought one of the boxed snacks.  Not a very exciting dinner.

Coming into Juneau

We landed in Juneau right on time at 7 pm.

A lot of helicopters around.

Juneau is surrounded by mountains or water

Nathan met us.  He is using Eric's car.  It was a perfect day to wander around a bit after the flight.

Fun sculpture

A lot of art around

We checked out the tram schedule then went to the grocery store for some ice cream before heading to Eric and Timi's place.

Eric & Timi's place, nearly on the water.

Nathan's work station.

The music room, office.  Eric plays the trumpet and guitar and Timi is an artist. Most of the paintings are hers.

Fiona enjoyed going outside for a little while.  We sat on the deck and played 10, 9, 8 while the brownies were cooking.  I had my glass of wine.  Ahh.  What a life!

The deck

Brownies and ice cream.

It finally started to get dark around 11 pm.  Never really got dark, more like dusk.
