It is an awesome life when you can spend the summer at the edge of a small secluded lake in Alaska and watch nature happen. You choose…do you want to sit on the dock to be closer to the fish jumping, beavers swimming around you, watch the loons play, and occasionally have the gracious swans visit.Or would you rather lounge on the deck with a good book and see the resident eagle fly over and purch on a nearby spruce, listen and watch the small planes fly over and watch nature though out the summer as the leaves come out, the first wildflowers bloom and then more. It is really a thrill. Another favorite place is in front of the picture windows in the swivel recliner rockers with the lake on one side and the fireplace on the other.
