How the heck did I get to 600 blog posts about our family's life in Alaska? That's a lot of emotion and information. You can read our very first post on November 17, 2007 right HERE. Dang, I just killed 30 minutes reading all these old musings.
Anyway........
Yukon is faring relatively well down in Oregon, missing his "guys" as he terms it, but learning a lot and even participating in physical therapy so as not to miss even a single day of recovery. What a guy.
Bear and I took a time-out together down in Seward the other day, embarking upon a lovely day cruise with Kenai Fjords and staying overnight at their Seward Windsong Lodge. He was a trooper, since I had to do my usual work/play combination and asked a lot of questions, took a lot of photos, and talked to way too many grownups for his taste. But Bear is nothing if not personable, and he managed to woo his way across Resurrection Bay with a minimum of fuss.
I'm catching up on things before a bunch of friends and family arrive from the Lower 48 for Yukon's 50th birthday. That's another story in itself....

Way to waste my morning, too! I had to go to the beginning and start reading your posts. But had to quit so I can get something done around here!
But I loved your statement about stepping off the plane and knowing you belonged in Alaska. I felt the same way in 1992, the first time we drove up to visit the relatives in Anchorage. I love Alaska, and my goal is to sometime live there for one year, just to say I lived there for one year! I'd probably have to live in Seldovia, though!
Blessings on your day!
Marge, Ha! I downed a lot of coffee this morning reading even more. Wow, was that really me? Have a wonderful day!
OK, 'fess up. Did you get that red jacket for your son because it is so stinkin' photogenic? :) I know the "wasting 30 minutes on old posts" but you know, hardly a waste to stroll down memory lane. A life unexamined, you now. Here's to being where you belong. Cheers!
