I just returned from a trip to Pelican, Alaska. Pelican is a fishing village one mountain range away from the ocean seas. As you can see by the pictures it is beautiful. The Mountains rise right up out of the water! It is amazing. The whole community is built on the side of a mountain with all homes and businesses on a boardwalk. The people were delightful!. I spent one evening with the volunteer fir department doing the spring cleaning of the firehall. I am now a member of the Pelican Volunteer fire department. It was a great new Alaskan Adventure.
