Soldotna, AK

It was Sunday and we went to church. Then we decided to drive up the Kenai Spur Highway to the Capt Cook State Recreation Area. There were lots of views of the Cook Inlet. We looked for agates on the beach. We could see the volcanoes in the distance across the inlet, but the clouds were nestled at the top of the volcanoes so they were hard to capture in a picture. On the way back we passed many oil refineries, and oil rigs - including lots of off shore oil rigs.


We spent some time in Kenai at the Russian Orthodox Church exhibits at the museum and a walk through town to see old town Kenai and the Russian Orthodox Church buildings still in use today. The church has a priest. We went to a gift shop near the church. The woman in charge of the gift shop is Indian, and she is a member of the Russian Orthodox Church.


When we came back to camp we decided to drive around the Solid Rock Bible Camp, where we are working here in Soldotna to check out the facilities. We took some pictures of the Chuck Wagon Camp where Grant will be working.


Devotions are at 7:30am tomorrow, then breakfast, and off to work.
