We have finished up our Round Robin Quilts! 6 of us began this quilt project back in the fall. The center wreath in the photo below is what I made. I said I liked scrappy quilts and supplied as much Christmas fabric as I had tucked away. None of us have seen our original block […]

Bill and I just arrived home after a fast and furious trip to Anchorage. We didn’t get out of town on Friday until after 5:00. Bill had a couple of “bushfires” that he needed to deal with at the college. The trip in was uneventful and we arrived at Chris Standley’s for a cup of […]

It’s hard to believe only 18 days of school left this year. The time has flown by. I’m beginning to take off some of this winter’s weight. This is the most I’ve ever weighed, and it’s been a struggle trying to rid myself of the extra pounds. The good weather has helped me get a […]

It’s one of those incredible blue sky Alaskan spring days. The constant drone of small bush planes heading in and out of Valdez is the red flag that this is the May Day Fly In. The third annual, no less! Not suprisingly, I haven’t seen much of Bill. He’s pretty much been camped out at […]

Dad scored tonight. He was invited out after work to go shrimping with a couple of guys. They pulled 10 shrimp pots and got somewhere around 70 shrimp. We feasted on 2 dozen of them after he got home. YUM! Got Rudy out for a nice long walk. It ended in a snowy-sleety mess, but […]

I’m finally sitting down to write in my blog. We had a wonderful Easter! The only thing that could have made it better would have been having Katie join us! Erin did a great job humoring me with a walk every day. We pounded the pavement, sometimes as much as an hour and a half […]

O.K. I’m starting to feel guilty about not posting on my blog. Bill 3 has been laying it on pretty thick the past few days so I figured I’d better get back at it. Testing going on at school this week so it’s been a mixture of popping into classrooms to spell teachers for a […]

We’re into packing mode and wrapping up school business. Getting ready for our mini trip to Maui Friday morning. We will fly out of Valdez Friday morning, weather permitting. I have a doctor’s appointment set up for the morning. We fly out at 3:00pm and arrive early evening in Maui. We’ll have Saturday and Sunday […]
