The home that Emily’s parents built and that she grew up in was sold several years ago. It sits on a large piece of property next to McLean’s homestead. The new owners have changed very little since they moved in. We walked around outside to see where Emily spent her early formative years.
The house through the willows.
The front porch.
The side entrance into the kitchen area.
Where Emily’s mother’s garden used to be. It’s all overgrown with grass now.
The community gardens in Gustavus. We were harvesting from a few rows of someone who had already left town for the winter.
The new state ferry dock under construction. Maybe by next summer there will be ferry service to Juneau.

Margot found some battery-operated candles with which to play.
We went out for a little fishing on one of the many creeks that runs through Gustavus. McLean got a nice big fish on a fly rod. Emily and I played around on a rod with a spinner.
Killing the fish before it can escape.
Nice looking fish!
