Wednesday afternoon. The wind is blowing. It is raining and it is 54 degrees in the afternoon. The wimpy residents of Alaska are grousing. Will spring never come? We, who don’t know any better feel that it is supposed to be always cold in Seward’s Icebox. So, we took a hike this morning from the Eagle River Nature Center. Struck out on bear, despite warnings of their presence, and saw only moose and a marvelous dipper bird.
