    Friday arrives.

    For this Friday's postings here are photos taken this week on a neighborhood hike into the nearby Estuary Nature Park Preserve:

    The Trail:

    An Eagle soars above:

    The Bird and Wildlife Look-Out at the Trail's End:

    Peering through one of the Look-Out's Viewing slots:

    And the view from another:

    Flora along the trai:

    Ferns with their fiddle heads (not the edible, when boiled at least 10 minutes, variety which have their tasty fiddle heads closer to the ground):

    Horsetails - a primitive plant that absorbs silica and even gold from the soil. Pioneers and prospectors used to use this plant to scrub their pans and dishes due to the abrasive mineral content and accordingly horsetails are also known as scouring rush.

    Some flora additions from the home front:

    A5 Olive Wagyu (from Japan) prepared in our kitchen (pandemic gourmet cooking).








    I have thought about buying some and cooking it myself, but I am afraid I would ruin it.

    How did you cook it?

    How did you cook it?

    Video shows the way. I prefer to use flake salt after cooking.

    Yum, that veal looks delicious. Is that the German pasta Spaetzle on the side?

    OK, here are my foodie contributions from this week.

    Homemade Pizza and Strawberry and Whipped Cream Topped Chiffon Cake laced with chocolate dribble:

    Keeping with the food theme for now..............Made up a pot of sauce today and had some mini peppers in the fridge so stuffed them and made the leftover stuffing into meatballs.

    Ready for the oven..........

    @hammer1

    That cutting wheel does work better with a cardboard pizza box under it than with a metal pan, :)

    Can’t tell you how many of those wheels got discarded with the empty pizza boxes

    Leaving the Portage Glacier location and heading back to the big city we had a close encounter of the terrestrial kind:

    Below is one of the mountain glaciers that still can be seen near the Portage Glacier Visitors Center without having to board the boat, which is the only way to now see the face of Portage Glacier itself:

    I just came across this photo taken at the same location almost a decade ago when friends were visiting. Apart from the added bush and tree growth and changes in the mountain glacier itself can be noted.

    Friday almost is coming to a close.

    First, here is a painting that I commissioned some years ago. It depicts the view from McHugh Creek Recreation Area looking across Turnagain Arm to the Kenai Peninsula and the shore along which is located the early gold rush town of Hope. McHugh Creek Recreation Area is located in Chugach State Park, the 3rd largest State Park in America.

    Now, compare today's view from where I was parked at the same location:

    Here are some added photos from this Friday as taken in the same area:

    Probably the #1 greatest purchase in American history!
