Five Species Of Alaska Salmon
Alaska Pink Salmon There are five species of salmon found in Alaska waters. These Pacific salmon all run up freshwater rivers and streams to spawn then they die. They are fun to catch and great eating. I was lucky enough to catch three of the five species on my trip to Alaska this past August. We had some of the Coho filets shipped home and they are fantastic when grilled.

Flying With Guns

Sometimes, it seems like everybody who doesn't own a gun is dead set against those of us who do - especially when it comes to airports and traveling. But that is not always the case, and guidelines are in place that allow for relatively easy and problem-free transport of your firearms on commercial airline flights.

When I flew to Denver and back earlier this month, it was my first time flying with guns. It turned out not to be that big a deal. I even decided not to regret the high cost of my gun case, considering the value of the guns that were crammed inside of it.
