Who is Nae?

Juneau, Alaska, United States
I'm a student, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a dreamer, a giver, a lover, an aspiring artist, an opera singer...a new mother-to-be. And here I am.

13: Hoonah Troller

 December 2009

This is my dad's favorite picture, probably ever.  
I took this shot from Alaska's Big Blue Canoe, a.k.a. Ferry.  I was travelling from Kake to Juneau, on the milk-run.  It stops in Sitka, Hoonah (sometimes, and sometimes Angoon), then finally to Juneau.  I went to Kake for a khoo.éex' for my lover's grandma.  Then, we stayed for Christmas.

It was one of the most beautiful rides I've experienced thus far.
Fishing is a way of life, and for people who live it there are ups and downs.  This is definitely an "up".  I come from a family of fisherman.  My grandpa was a fisherman.  My parents are fisherman.  I know that because of the "ups" like this, they wished they could live on a boat for the rest of their lives and fish...or just be.
