Anyone heard from Howard and Linda lately? Their last post was two weeks ago.

We are fine. Thanks for your concern. We were indeed stranded on Kodiak Island due to the ferry workers strike, but we ended up flying off the island and having our Jeep barged back to the mainland. The ferry refunded our entire fare to offset the cost of our flights and barge.
I'm just behind on Journal posts after our photo-intensive trip to Katmai National Park. Those posts have been published now.
Since then, we've been catching our limit of Sockeye Salmon in the Kenai River in Soldotna, and then we went to Kodiak for a few days, and then the Russian River, and now we're back in Soldotna catching Sockeyes again. They raised the limit from three to six per day per person, so we bought a small freezer, and we're filling it with fish.
We'll be heading north toward Denali in a little over a week. We have reservations there August 19 for a few days. Then we'll continue to Fairbanks and start back sometime near the first of September.

That's the short version. :)
Looks like you guys are having a blast!
