This bird was hit by a car and can no longer fly so he will live out his life here.
A Barred Owl
A tiny little screech owl - yes, he's alive.
In the afternoon we went fishing/bear watching. Then we met Dave and Julie Yocum from Virginia and enjoyed a pizza dinner with them. We've been corresponding with them because they also have a Landmark camper and were coming to Alaska. Once again the internet, this time via the site for Heartland RV owners, served as introduction to new friends.
August 6 - We drove around Haines a little more this morning. We wanted to go to the place where they make totem poles but they were closed on Saturday. With nothing else to do we did a little grocery shopping and washed a load of clothes. Once again we did the fishing/bear thing. This is two nights in a row the bears chased the fisher people out of the river. They come very close and have cubs so you never know what they'll do.
August 7 - This morning we said goodbye to Haines and headed to Whitehorse in the Yukon. Got to our campground around 4:00 pm. Tomorrow our goal is Watson Lake, YT. We're going to be taking the Cassiar Highway to Stewart, B.C. and then 3 miles into Hyder, AK to see a spot where the bears are abundant.
