Relaxing for a few days to reflect on the trip. Cleaned out the Scout and took a ferry to the Best Western for a few nights. Getting my GoPro ready...

Aero Services, Ketchikan, AK is the best FBO (or otherwise business) to work with. Even with the Private Jets they still give me great service!!! Not like other FBOs that look the other way when a piston aircraft pulls up. Great tie down with a shuttle!

(78) Fahrenheit in Ketchikan (Newport, Oregon was 52 overcast)

Ferry to town $6 round trip ticket. Very professional and on time.

Some people may not known that there are no roads to the mainland. Everything is brought by boat or air.

Ketchikan sees several of the same cruise ships that visit Honolulu. Today I saw two ships (that frequent Hawaii) going North in the Tongrass Channel. The Channel is narrow and the ships really need to be careful!

This ship just left North...
