Old Harbor is the biggest village with about 250 people. I think it is the most scenic one as well. It was an awesome work visit. I went with Matthew & Monica (it was their first village trip & they loved it as well), who were great company. The residents were super friendly and welcoming. It was really neat to see how productive this little community is and all the programs and activities they have available. They had meal programs for seniors and kids as well as an awesome recycling program and Alutiiq dance practice plus even more. We put on Salmon Camp for the children there, they were great kids to work with! We got to explore Old Harbor in the evenings we were there and I got a few pictures I wanted to share...

Enjoying some homemade ice cream!
We got the privilege of staying in the Senior Center which just happened to have a decent sized collection of VHS tapes. We found a Paula Abdul dance workout video so naturally we had to try it out. The pic above is us in action. B the W, we actually did most of the dance routine. Getting our workout on! We also did a little country line dancing as well... naturally.

Pretty excited about this bald eagle pic.. I finally have a camera that has a good zoom!
(Thanks Mom)
Life doesn't get better than this.
I took this pic on our flight back to Kodiak. We had a fun pilot who gave us quite the flight back. We got to see a bear, mountain goats, wild horses, a waterfall, harbor seals, and he made us "weightless" for a few seconds. It was an Indiana Jones type of flight. Good time & great trip!
I love this place.
