Ketchikan: Winter '04-'05


Another locums placement found me at a clinic in Ketchikan, AK for a couple weeks in December and then for most of February.  (In January I was wandering around in Patagonia -- pictures coming soon from that trip too!)

Like the sign says -- welcome to Ketchikan!
Boats pull up along this dock to sell crabs... I'm planning to go down there to buy some and cook 'em up before I leave next week!
A few more shots from those same docks...


Float planes nearby... Stay tuned, further down this page I get to fly one!
Along the famous Creek Street.

Totem poles abound here...

More float planes
Sunsets from the place I stayed in December were _beautiful_! (even if they did happen at 3PM...)


Here's Ernie, one of the ER docs, and his plane -- one day in February we went for a sunset flight!
Here I am!

The scenery was great from the plane!


So here I am at the controls! I made the plane turn left and then go straight again. It was pretty cool actually!
