Default We're Here !!

Yes we made it to Alaska, I started work last monday and immediately took sick time as the ferry crossing over the Gulf of Alaska seems to have given me more than just a touch of sea sickness. Feeling alot better now and ready to start again tomorrow.
I'm going to post the link to my husbands blog as it's easier than me posting a ton of photos here. enjoy !

If she can, she's now fully qualified to run this country, apparently!

Jan, welcome to Alaska and may you, your hubby and Maddy continue to find joy and pleasure in living in our 49th State. It is beautiful, isn't it? I loved the blog and the pictures and can associate with some of them since I was in Whittier and Juneau only a few months ago.

I love the blog! Amazing photos, and what an incredible trip.

I now want to visit Alaska and Montana.

BTW when I read the 'if you... you may live in Alaska' section and found myself saying '...or Maine' at the end of many sentences.

I hope it goes well for you and look forward to reading more about it.

Brilliant blog and photos. I confess to feeling more than a little jealous, given that the temperature was, yet again, over 100F today.

I wonder if they need any town planners up there.

LoL Now that would be an even funnier comment, if the thought of it potentially actually happening wasn't so scary.
