After fishing days on end and not showering, what do you expect? But the beard is starting to grow in thick and looking around me, most other people here have thick facial hair and a sort of natural scent. I guess I'm just acclimitizing.
I have been taking pictures and was planning on posting some proof that I am actually in Alaska, but as internet connection is seldom and often shaky, a post is the best I can do for now. I do have some really good pictures I'd like to share and will get them up as soon as I can.
We just got back in from a six day session and will probably spend a day or so in town to regroup. The total salmon count is almost at 100,000 pounds. Not terribly exciting from historical standards, but it's making a living and there's still hope for a big run of salmon to come through. That's what everyone's hoping for at least.
It's been pretty tough up to this point, but it's slowly getting easier. I still have over a month of fishing left, but I imagine it'll start flying by pretty soon. Which I guess is both good and bad.
Hope all's well in your corner of the world.

Keep it up and keep us posted through the blog. I think you shouldn't shave at all and then come back home!
Also, I expect a funny story with the next blog entry.
Right on...enjoying the updates and that I can read about the experiences without the smell!
Sao's going to Thailand at the end of august...so it looks like in the spring I plan to go to the middle east...not quite thailand but certainly interesting?
I'm hoping you can join me
Yours,
Barry
Hope all is well up there!
Hey Sean,
We are sitting here in a coffee shop, in da nati, wishing that we too were in Alaska! Sorry to hear you smell, hope the stache is coming along beautifully, and if you ever feel like renting a giant red van, and y know, swing by Canada... hit us up!! Happy days to you, and dont let the fishies get you.
Sam and Lil
salmon count only 100,000... how dismal. last i heard it was getting up there.
NO MORE SWIMMING!!!
and dude, there is a shower on the boat, I know its kind of sketchy, and you'll probably catch some rare fungus. but its not too bad.
