Fun Weekends are Too Short

Yeah, they are.  We have been to Keystone Canyon to see waterfalls…

We’ve rode 4 wheelers and Sydney even got to go swimming for the first time.

Today we visited the Old Valdez Town Site.  Valdez was originally located 4 miles east of it’s current location.  It was relocated after the Good Friday Earthquake of 1964 and it’s subsequent tsunamis destroyed the town.  This was one of the largest earthquakes on record at 10.4.

It’s amazing how much stuff is still out at the town site from the disaster.

These are just a few of the things I found today; a forklift, a pump and an upside down truck axle. 

Overall, a WONDERFUL (sunny at that) weekend with the family.
