Since coming to Alaska ten years ago, Tom & Mary Glover planned on taking the trip offered by the Alaska Marine Highway System down the Aleutian Chain. This will be a multi-part series on their trip. This week's photostory depicts the departure from Seldovia on the M/V Tustumena, to Homer, to Port Lion and then Kodiak. We decided to share our pictures with you. |
