May 30 - Morgan's Landing

It's 145 miles from Anchorage to Morgan's Landing where my friends Beccky and Linda work as campground hosts.

The railroad runs along the side of the road for a while.

Even though it was cloudy, I still thought it was beautiful!

There were many places to stop and take pictures.

Being from the midwest where the land is flat and covered in soybeans, or corn, the mountains and oceans were like a new world!

I kept stopping to take pictures!

I stopped at this amazing waterfall.

There were no other cars parked in this area, so I wondered about this tent.

Turns out it's a restroom!

Back on the road to Morgan's Landing.

Arrived!

All set for dinner, a rest and a visit with Becky and Linda. (I met Becky and Linda at Ash Meadows. They were volunteers there when I was there. They're full-time RVrs, but Alaska is where they've called home for the past 35 years! Last year they weren't able to come to Alaska because of COVID, but this year they returned to their familiar camping ground - Morgan's Landing.)

Dedication plaque to Lou and Cathy Morgan who homesteaded this land then sold it to the state of Alaska.

The view of the Kenai River at Morgan's Landing.

That platform like thing is a staircase leading down to the river for fishermen and women!

You can see the water level is low, but running fast past the fishing ladder.
