20 days until take off...


I'm sitting here in the SE Waffle Co. in Juneau, trying to focus on doing some politics research... it's finally hitting me that I'm leaving in three weeks and I have an incredible amount of work to do in that period of time. Travis is gone for a week in Petersburg (AK) for his internship with the Dept. of Transportation... I believe he's going to be on bear patrol while his partner surveys the areas for potential roads. So, I have a week to get as much homework done as possible!

It's been a busy summer... Travis and I both working full time 9-5 jobs. Unfortunately, we haven't had the best weather in Juneau, so there hasn't been any exciting adventures outside yet, besides a couple unsuccessful fishing trips. The fourth up here was wonderful, I always love the fourth of July in Juneau. Travis and I watched the Juneau parade with my family and then rode bikes over to Douglas for the mini-parade in Douglas and the Sandy Beach festivities. Our favorite thing to do is watch the soap-box races, which is always a treat. I also won a dollar for participating in the women's 60-yard dash... way to go me!

Anyway, more later. I'm off to get some research books from the UAS Library.
Lots of Love...
