ASH MURDER and BEARS

A volcanic island called Kasatochi
blew it’s top and ashes were thrown up to 40000 feet in the air. At least 44 flights to and from Anchorage were cancelled including the one carrying our vital spare part. So we are stuck in a truly dreadful RV park in Anchorage. The other RV park we could stay in had a murder last night.

When we go for a walk we worry about bears as there have been many sightings with one brown bear being hunted by troopers after attacking a runner and a black bear being shot in a garage after eating the garbage.

On a lighter note Anchorage has an amazing network of hard surfaced walking cycling trails. Most cross roads using underpasses and the ones we have used with Charro seem to lead from one outdoor park to another. So while we are stuck in the RV park as Charro does not fit on the motorbike we can move around along wooded trails with Charro in his trolley but worrying about being eaten by bears.
