8-16-2011 Al Fishing and Misc

Last full day in Haines.  Al went out fishing and got two pink salmon...he was happy about that.  Went to see the bears again, and came back to a campfire.  Our neighbors from Whitehorse, Yukon had a roaring campfire going so we joined them.   It was very enjoyable and they were really nice nice people.  A young couple in one rig, her dad in another and I think in-laws in another.  Lots of fun, and brought back many memories of around the campfire!!!!  Tomorrow the 17th we will take the evening ferry to Skagway.  350 miles to drive around, and only one hour by ferry!

Al trying for the big one (that got away LOL)... I guess catching the two salmon gave him a taste, so when we went to see the bears, he spent time throwing in a line again!!:)

This is the fishing and bear area....usually bear on the right, and fishermen on the left.

Town of Haines...we are camping close to the trees on the right.  Can't see us tho :(

I guess even the bears are getting body piercings LOL....jk

The is the cub with the fishing hook stuck in his nose.  Didn't bother him at all tho...he just keeps fishing and eating....

This is the entrance to the State Campground at the end of the road.  Guess they had seen these guys a few nights before in the campground.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!
