outdoor fun.

Looks like its time for my weekly update, I can’t believe I am doing so bad at this! I suppose nothing really consequential happened this week, and I haven’t missed archiving any experiences. It was a pretty slow week, but busy all at the same time. Dennis has been in Anchorage from Tuesday morning on. I added a ton of music into the system early in the week, and enjoyed playing it all week long. Lydia started driving the 4 wheeler to work on Tuesday, after I got my city tabs. Its been snowing here the past few days, but just small amounts at a time…but today it has been drifting a bunch, so there are large piles of snow in random places.

A few days ago I purchased a airplane ticket for Anchorage in March, so I can see the start of the Iditarod. I’m very excited to see the beginning and the end now, and I’m going to try and find sponsors that can get me to a majority of the checkpoints. I would love to cover the whole race.

I’ve been hanging out on the fourwheeler a lot, it’s a nice activity that I can get all bundled up for, and do outside. I really like the crisp winter air here, but hadn’t found any way to make use of that during this part of the year. You can’t just go sit outside and read the paper….during the week I haven’t had the time nor motivation to go hiking…. I’d walk downtown every so often, but you can only do that so much…the 4wheeler is a nice little exciting element that is great outdoors. I can imagine the station’s two snow machines will bring the same type of outdoor fun!
