Haines, Alaska

August 5,  Went for a drive today, drove west out of town to the Alaska Marine Highway System Ferry Terminal, didn’t see any ferry, they just came back to work after being on strike for 10 days.  We continued driveling east to the Chilkoot Lake and Campground, drove through the campground and back out, while driving back we saw a bald eagle sitting on a branch in the water looking for fish, hoping to see a bear but didn’t see any.  They have a fish counter on the river, with over 1800 fish counted yesterday and lots of fisherman fishing.  Got back to trailer relaxed for a few hours and then went uptown, walked through some shops and visited the Hammer Museum, the world’s first museum dedicated to the history of humanity’s first tool.  With over 1,800 hammers on display, the Hammer Museum has something for everyone to enjoy.  We then went and ordered a pizza for dinner, wood fired with mushrooms, it was ok, like the ones at home better.  Sat by the fire again tonight, with a couple from Ohio and a couple from Anchorage, great conversation, saw two cruise ships going by tonight.
