Photo On the way to Seward by Jim Griffin

This is taken about halfway between Homer and Seward Alaska. The only sad part about this photo is that a couple of days later a man was killed by a grizzly at about midnight after he had been fishing not too far from this location. Really show how you could think you're in a safe area but not be.

Actually, in the summertime it really never gets totally dark. It gets somewhat dark about 2 in the morning so at midnight you still have a little light left. The closest large town to here is Anchorage about 2.5 hours away. Alaska is still very much a wilderness area. (very unique in todays world)
