“Once Upon Alaska” 3rd Book Spread…Image 2862

My family and I were out visiting Paul Johnson and family in Elfin Cove.  It was Easter.  It was pouring…a full rubber suit day in Southeast Alaska.  In spite of the pounding rain, we all headed out on our skiff bundled up under a tarp for a beach walk.  In the middle of the downpour, the sky opened up. I found my camera in the bottom of the dry bag and grabbed this shot.  While getting in the skiff, I was wondering why on earth I would be traveling with my camera on such a miserable day.  This image is the answer. This is the third book spread in “Once Upon Alaska” – my new children’s book.
