    Awesome stuff guys. Hey I was thinking to make it easier to get in the boat . I would make a log bed that you put rocks in it to keep it from moving and make it like steps where you could just go up the steps to walk right on your boat .If you put it out far enough your boat bottom would not have to grind on the rocks. Sort of like a dock slash boat steps. .Anyways cheers from southern Ontario.

    I love how clear the water is. So peaceful on this day. A long time ago when Gunner was by the water and there were otters, you called for him to get away from them and I've always wondered why, are otters dangerous to dogs? I love watching them. Anyway, it looks like winter is over, time to garden, fish and travel!!! Stay safe and have a great week!!

    • @AnAlaskaHomestead
      @AnAlaskaHomestead  4 місяці тому +3

      Hi Sue, we can’t wait to get the garden planted this year. So much to do in such little time😂 Otters are cute and fun to watch but they can be vicious. They’ve been know to lure dogs into the water and then drown them, attack humans in the water and much more. Cute but don’t mess with them😂

    Breath taking beautiful scenery !! It’s an amazing reaction without even being there. Everything looked so crisp and clear. I wish i could take at least one breath in that beautiful air. Is it my imagination or are you both getting thinner ? I am wondering if you’re doing that keto diet again or if it’s because you don’t have to bundle up so much anymore. Either way you both look as fresh as your day there. Praying that you have a safe, healthy year !! Have a Great week and Thanks for sharing !!

    Looking good. Here in S. E. MI. we just got 5" of fresh snow. But then the temp at night went from 20 degrees to 45 degrees. Wacky weather. Anyway, watching you moore your boat I was thinking if that was me at my age 72 I'd be thinking about a zodiak. So as you out grow your kayak not in size but in age you'll know. Take er easy, LIVE FREE 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🛥️

    • @AnAlaskaHomestead
      @AnAlaskaHomestead  4 місяці тому

      We have a 16’ skiff but it’s easier to use the kayak until the winter winds are over.
