8-2 MON.
Aboard the Columbia. We dock at Petersburg at 1 a.m. I get up for
a look see. Talk to Boston chick again. At 6 a.m. we are near Wrangle,
I shower and change clothes. There enough of a layover to tour town.
Isn't much there. Chief Shakes little island with his grave,
a tribal house and several totems. The tide is out and we are lead
down to view some petroglyph. Meet fisherwoman from Oregon. I relate
my My Coleen fishing story. Back on board, take a nap, read and talk
to people. Too soon we pull into KETCHIKAN and I must depart.
Cruise town and go to the totem museum, totem park and a couple of
tourist traps. Everything is 50 percent off. 50 percent off the 500
percent marked up no doubt! I learn the Taku will be 1 a.m. late!
So I go see Lethal Weapon 2, good show. Back to ferry, now due at
1:30 so I go get beers and talk to Honda guys, and wait and wait and
wait. It's past 3 a.m. when we finally board. I can barely function.
Alaska Marine Highway stinks!
