Shoot Low Sherriff they're riding Shetlands... or Are they?

Shoot Low Sherriff they're riding Shetlands...

Homer Alaska

So I'm driving down the road minding my own business when suddenly I see ahead of me a very strange sight...

Homer Alaska 

In Homer Alaska like other towns across the nation people love their dogs and drive them around in their trucks...

But I have never seen someone driving around with a small pony in the back of the truck

The head was bobbing , the hair was flying and the neck going back and forth....

It looked Real.....Really!

 Shoot Low Sherriff they're riding Shetland

Upon closer investigation this was no pony...maybe a one trick pony... it was a stuffed pony for children to ride!

Shoot Low Sherriff they're riding Shetlands... 

So there you go... things are not always as they appear...it is always good to take a second look!

Mary Ann Rowe is a fixture in the title world... She works at First American Title and before that worked at Kachemak Title... She is the Title Queen..... She knows where all the easements are and the encroachments and a few squatters...

Happy Birthday Mary Ann Rowe! Homer Alaska 

She Has And Is A Tremendous Boon To Our Community And Has Served On All Kinds Of Boards And Helped Out At Fundraisers And Even A Realtor Convention Or 2 Or 23.....

Yacht Club, Rotary Club, Winter King Salmon Derby, Shorebird Festival,  And On The Board Of The Chamber Of Commerce,  Alaska Land Title Are Just A Few Of The Organizations She Has Contributed To And Be Part Of...Last Year She Was Named  Affiliate Of The Year For Kachemak Board Of Realtors, She Is Our Rock...

Kachemak Heritage Land Trust Homer Alaska

Kachemak Heritage Land Trust is Alaska's first land trust.

Kachemak Heritage Land Trust

KHLT has helped to preserve forest, wetlands and riverfront, recreational areas, historic and cultural sites, and urban natural areas on the Kenai Peninsula through donations of land and conservation easements.

Kachemak Heritage Land Trust 

KHLT is primarily supported by individuals, foundations, corporations, and businesses who believe that the protection of natural land is important if we are to retain the quality of life and economic base that make the Kenai Peninsula so attractive for residents and visitors.

Kachemak Heritage Land Trust 

You can donate land, money time or labor... they do very good work and we are better for their work.

homer Jackpot derby

The Homer Alaska Jackpot Halibut Derby is the largest derby in the land!

Saturday a new leader emerged... Jamie Olvera from Fairbanks Alaska.... She reeled in a whopping 277.6 pound Halibut!

 Homer Alaska is the Halibut Capitol of the world ….

Unless someone pulls up a bigger fish by Tuesday she will win the monthly prize of 1,000 and

an extra $500 for the Lady Angler monthly prize.

Congratulations to Capt. Ben Martin of North Country Halibut Charters!

 Great Job putting your clients on the fish!

The Derby has one more month to go and closes on Sept 30. Lots of the big fish get caught in this last month...

 

The Homer Alaska Jackpot Halibut Derby is sponsored by the Homer Chamber Of Commerce.

The grand prize depends on how many tickets are sold but last years winner was

Homers' own Tom Youngblood, he won $40,440!  354.6 Pound Halibut

 Homer Alaska is the Halibut Capitol of the world ….

 Still Time to buy a ticket and get to FISHING!

Sandhill Cranes in Homer Alaska....

 

Sandhill Cranes in Homer Alaska....

Sandhill Cranes in Homer Alaska....

The other Day we were on our Realtor HLS tour (Homer List Share we go and see the new listings every Wednesday)...

Sandhill Cranes in Homer Alaska....

It was a beautiful day in Homer Alaska as we came out of a house right in town just in time to see a couple of Sand Hill cranes land in the yard next door... There is no way you can ignore a crane when they land right in front of you and start walking with those long gangling legs and make their little honking noises..

Sandhill Cranes in Homer Alaska....

 Enjoy them while you can .... They will leave us all too soon...

Senator Ted Stevens Legacy is the 49th Star in the American Flag.

Senator Ted Stevens Legacy is the 49th Star in the American Flag.

His family issued this statement and it is true.

It is fact. Ted Stevens touched Alaska and Alaskans in every possible way.

His life's work was Alaska's great fortune.

Without Senator Ted there are many places in Alaska that would not have running water, electricity or roads.

If you have never been to Alaska you can not understand how Vast it is and the challenge it is to live here...

It is beautiful and awe-inspiring but it is tough.

Senator Ted made our lives easier; He was the Trail Blazer to mark and ensure Alaska's Future.

He is our champion, our warrior our friend.

"They sent me here," he once said simply, "to stand up for the state of Alaska."

"My motto has been here: To hell with politics, just do what's right for Alaska," he told the Senate in a farewell address in November 2008.

It is hard to say goodbye to this larger than life Alaskan Hero ....who always put Alaska first...

His family will grieve him and we Alaskans will grieve him as our own... our Uncle Ted.

Senator Ted Stevens Legacy is the 49th Star in the American Flag.
