Loved the Halibut Special last night! And Alaska is breathtakingly beautiful!
I visited Homer in early June 2010. Homer is a bit off the Alaskan tourism trail but it is a nice place to visit for 5-7 days if you don’t mind the drive or waiting for a flight. Homer is a great base to fish for halibut, cod, and salmon, bear viewing in Katmai, or kayaking on the Kenai peninsula.
I am thinking the trip to Big River Lake (first show) also originated from Homer.
