Unemployment, Day 35

Woke up at about 8 this morning. It is odd to sleep in a place as bereft of sound as the cabin. I'm so used to sleeping with the dog, and the A/C unit running, and Travis breathing. The extreme quiet is sometimes distracting. I'll probably adjust just in time to return home. And then not be able to sleep. Oh well.

We hiked back down the driveway this morning around 11 and went for a drive. We went into Cooper Landing and had lunch at the Sunrise Inn and Cafe. It has been a place we have stopped a few times on our way back or forth from Homer. Before the Sunrise Cafe, we would often stop in at Summit Lake Lodge. Summit Lake Lodge is only usually open part of the year so we can't always stop in there when we wish to.

It was a pretty drive, we even saw a few bald eagles. It was a pretty warm day, sunny and 45 degrees.

Dave came up for dinner tonight. I made enchiladas on Thursday morning that we brought up here, Mom made some cheesy biscuits, and we sat around eating and drinking margaritas. We watched a movie and then Dave decided to head back home.

Dad is pulling down two of the kitchen cabinets, they were not quite up to holding all of the stuff so he bought new ones. The new ones look really nice. Plus I suspect they'll be more stable, and a lot more level.

Its 10 PM and still light outside. :)
