Homer is located on the Kenai Peninsula, 226 miles south of Anchorage. Population 5,153. Part of the town in located on the Homer spit, a narrow strip of land jutting into Kachemak Bay. I stayed in an RV park on the spit for two nights, again among fishermen. A group of four bearded young men were camped next to me, and apologized for their noise (beer plus campfire) by giving me some halibut. Not a bad deal!
Outside of my front window I could see the Bay, otters, seals, many kinds of birds, and the beach.
Koka was happy!
The spit is full of campers and cars, and I had a nightmare about a tsunami. If one were to occur, there would be absolutely no way to get a bunch of RVs, some 50 feet long, to safe ground.The next day I moved to a camp in town. I never have nightmares so I decided to take heed. The beach was even better from the second RV park. Three major glaciers across the bay - the Dixon, the Portlock and the Grewingk glaciers.
