So things in Alaska are going pretty much as expected. Snow, snow, snow - and then the warm weather comes to melt it off and give hope to spring, only to snow again and bury springtime hopes under inches and inches of the fluffy white stuff. Just snow and get it over with so we won't have our hopes dashed every other week.
J got a killer deal on two snowmachines (w/trailer) and we've been driving up to Hatcher's Pass on the weekends to enjoy them. They are great! It makes up for the lost springtime hopes. Ok, so I'm sure you're thinking - why buy snowmachines now when we're praying for spring? Like I said, killer deal! That's how it works here and I'm sure it's the same way everywhere. You can get some really great buys on things at the end of the season - clearance sale time. We might get one or two more weekends of fun with them before we'll store them away and get out the four-wheelers and motorcycles. You have to understand, summer is so short up here people have a tendency to soak up every waking minute we possibly can. Thank goodness for the really long days.
Thankfully we've heard the my sis-in-law has recovered from her surgery and she's back on her feet again. That's the tough part of living so far away. As close as we may be it's hard not being physically close at times like these. I'm just glad she has such a great hubby and daughter to be there for her.
Ok, let's see what I can get into today!
