A Spring Walk on the Beach







This spring we went to the beach for a walk.  As you can tell, this isn't your typical day at the beach. Nothing like our beautiful day to the beach this summer with my Uncle Craig, Aunt Monica and Chris... but I will write about that later.



  Kanakanak Beach was still covered with snow and ice, and the Nushagak River hadn't "gone out" yet. Meaning the river was still frozen, but about to break up.


Kolbi enjoyed walking in the water, Kiley and Kalin loved the mud!

They loved climbing up onto these massive icebergs, which scared me just a little.  The older girls are fearless.


We even found a waterfall. By then the youngest member of our tribe had fallen into the water and needed a warmer jacket.  Wet is easier to deal with then Kanakanakak beach mud!


We ended the day with another sister picture, which they complain about incessantly.  I'm not sure why, because they do love to see their pictures together.  Well, they will, someday.  Anyway. This was a very fun day at the beach, even if there was little sun, icebergs and mud.  These Alaskan chicks loved it, and so did their parents.
