[edit] faux precision
2.86% of a population of 35 is one person. The percentage has two more digits of precision than can ever be relevant. —Tamfang 21:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
Here's how the Demographics section looks with raw numbers:
- The racial makeup of the CDP was 34 White and 1 from two or more races.
- There were 18 households, of which three had children under the age of 18 living with them, twelve were married couples living together, and six were non-families. Six households were made up of individuals and two had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 1.94 and the average family size was 2.42.
- In the CDP the population was spread out with five under the age of 18, eleven from 25 to 44, eleven from 45 to 64, and eight who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 47 years. For fifteen females there were twenty males. For thirteen females age 18 and over, there were seventeen males.
I think it looks more honest this way. —Tamfang 21:47, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Lodges in Halibut Cove
Hello,
We would like to introduce ourselves to you. We are Kevin and Lucinda, and Bowman and Jessica Sidelinger, the owners and hosts of Alaska’s Ridgewood Wilderness Lodge, a full-service destination lodge in Halibut Cove, Alaska. Halibut Cove is located 8 miles across Kachemak Bay from the end of the Homer Spit. The Cove is also the home of the Saltry Restaurant, Diana Tillion’s Cove Gallery and the Halibut Cove Experience Gallery.
We have lived adjacent to the Kachemak Bay State Park for over 32 years. For the last 16 years we have made our living oyster farming. Our oyster farm is one of the leading producers in the state of Alaska, and in 2007, Kevin was one of three finalists for the Global Food Award.
The timber-framed lodge was designed and built by Kevin and has a 10 guest capacity. We are open year around. Included in the reservation cost is use of lodge facilities, rooms with private baths, high-speed wireless internet, house keeping and complimentary laundry services. All meals are served by your hosts.
Alaska’s Ridgewood Wilderness Lodge is what Alaskan fantasy is all about. We are an ideal destination for experiencing Alaska in luxurious comfort as well as having countless adventurous activities readily available. Guests will share in a positive and energetic Alaskan lifestyle with four truly “seasoned” Alaskans.
Lucinda and Jessica would be happy to help arrange any activities guests are interested in, which include brown bear photography, trophy salmon and halibut charters, fly-fishing for rainbow trout, hiking, bird-watching, and many more.
If you are interested in making reservations at our lodge, please contact us for further information.
